In MySQL, we can use the sys.ps_is_consumer_enabled() function to check whether a given Performance Schema consumer is enabled.
The function returns YES or NO, depending on whether or not the specified Performance Schema consumer is enabled. It returns NULL if the argument is NULL.
In MySQL, we can use the sys.sys_get_config() function to get a configuration option value from the sys_config table.
In MySQL, we can use the sys.quote_identifier() function to quote a string to produce a result that can be used as an identifier in a SQL statement.
The string is returned enclosed by backticks (`), with each instance of a backtick doubled.
This function can be handy when a value to be used as an identifier is a reserved word or contains backtick characters.

In MySQL, the sys.extract_schema_from_file_name() function is a stored function in the sys schema.
It accepts a path name, and returns the path component that represents the schema name.
This enables us to get the schema from a given file path.
Continue readingIn MySQL, the sys.format_statement() system function reduces the length of a given string/SQL statement to the length stored in the statement_truncate_len configuration option.
This function can be handy for truncating potentially long SQL statements retrieved from Performance Schema tables into a more suitable length (64 characters by default).
Continue readingIn MySQL, the sys.format_path() function is a stored function in the sys schema. It accepts a path name, and returns the modified path name after replacing subpaths that match the values of certain system variables.
So we can use the function to dynamically replace part or all of our path with a system variable that matches that path segment.
Continue readingIn MySQL, the sys.extract_table_from_file_name() function is a stored function in the sys schema.
It accepts a path name, and returns the path component that represents the table name.
