MySQL overview

MySQL, the industry-leading open-source SQL database, is an accessible, easy-to-use relational database management system (RDBMS). As an alternative to Oracle and SQL server, MySQL offers features and capabilities that were once only available to users of expensive proprietary systems.

What’s new in version 8.0.42

  • InnoDB: CHECK TABLE for spatial indexes did not verify the MBR against the geometry MBR stored in the clustered index record. This could result in incorrect behaviour of spatial indexes.
  • As of this release, CHECK TABLE EXTENDED verifies the MBR matches the MBR stored in the clustered index record. (Bug #37359538)
  • InnoDB: Fixed an issue relating to pessimistic row update.
  • Our thanks to Mengchu Shi and the team at Alibaba for the contribution. (Bug #37292404)
  • InnoDB: The CHECK TABLE operation could incorrectly report corruption in spatial indexes. (Bug #37286473)
  • InnoDB: Fixed an issue relating to InnoDB redo log recovery. (Bug #37061960)
  • InnoDB: Fixed an issue relating to reading index_id values. (Bug #36993445, Bug #37709706)
  • InnoDB: Fixed an issue relating to lower_case_table_names. (Bug #32288105)
  • InnoDB: Partition table indexes were not checked when retrieving a record count while that table's definition was being altered by another client session. The record count was executed without error.
  • As of this release, the index is checked to ensure it is usable when retrieving a record count. (Bug #117459, Bug #37617773)
  • InnoDB: Refactored code related to BPR_PCUR_* positioning for restore operations. (Bug #117259, Bug #37505746)
  • References: This issue is a regression of: Bug #37318367.

New version 8.0.13. This version requires system 10.13 or 10.14. The intermediate versions of the version, required 10.12. The previous versions of 8 (8.0.0 dmr)accepted 10.11 but I think they withdrew the support before the initial final version. Browsing your website, I only see the final version (not beta or prior) compatible with 10.11 version 5.7.16. In MU, they offer 5.7.17 as compatible, but the MySQL site mentions only 10.12. Are versions of 10.12 compatible with 10.11? Can I then use version 5.7.20? Why do not they already offer support for 10.11 with security updates for some previous version? It was not my favorite, because it needs a lot of previous study to use. But the price of FileMaker, and its obsolescence made me consider this option. I see that there is no other solution to pay, and stay updated forever. With new computer as the Apple gurus send, every 9 months :-)

I have a small library card catalogue archive for which I'm going to build a database. Each card might have 3 separate entries on it...probably a total of around 14,000 cards. Will MySQL work for me?

Why o why does MacUpdate track Unix software in the main Mac software channel? Just a suggestion, but i would prefer it if you had a separate tab/category for server software, daemons, CLI utilities and the like. That way, the 90% who don't use it won't have to contend with the added entries on the tracker. (I do personally use a lot of server-oriented software and CLI tools, so i would personally check that category for updates. But my preference would be to separate them out to another category listing.)

The MU download only provides some 0.5kb (!) tar.gz file, and the developer link only leads to some fairly small-sized search engine code. However, the below link seems to provide the full-on file in several formats for OS 10.6: http://dev.mysql.com/downloads/mysql/
