Yahoo's MySQL Partition Manager is Open Source

The guys at Yahoo released their partition management script on github:

At Yahoo, we manage a massive number of MySQL databases spread across multiple data centers.
We have thousands of databases and each database has many partitioned tables. In order to efficiently create and maintain partitions we developed a partition manager which automatically manages these for you with minimal pre configuration.

You can check out the original anoucement at the MySQL@Yahoo blog and the code at its github repo.
