Oracle maintains long-term-support lines (8.0 and 8.4, and 9.7) alongside innovation releases that switched to calendar versioning in 2026, with 26.10 the current release documented on dev.mysql.com.\n\nCompared with PostgreSQL, MySQL has a smaller extension ecosystem and a stricter separation between community and commercial features; MariaDB continues as a community fork with diverging features.",97  "capabilities": [98    "InnoDB transactional storage with row-level locking",99    "Asynchronous and group replication",100    "JSON data type with functions and indexing",101    "Window functions and common table expressions",102    "MySQL Shell and Router tooling",103    "Managed deployments through HeatWave and cloud providers"104  ],105  "categories": [106    {107      "slug": "relational-databases",108      "primary": true109    }110  ],111  "execution_modes": [112    "self-hosted",113    "cloud"114  ],115  "interfaces": [116    "cli",117    "api",118    "library"119  ],120  "source_model": "mixed",121  "license_spdx": "GPL-2.0-only WITH Universal-FOSS-exception-1.0",122  "pricing_model": [123    "open-source",124    "free",125    "enterprise",126    "usage-based"127  ],128  "sources": [129    {130      "url": "https://www.mysql.com/",131      "type": "official_site",132      "supports": [133        "name",134        "summary",135        "pricing_model"136      ],137      "checked_at": "2026-11-02",138      "title": "MySQL",139      "note": "Site blocks plain curl (HTTP 403) but loaded through a browser-like fetcher today"140    },141    {142      "url": "https://dev.mysql.com/doc/",143      "type": "official_docs",144      "supports": [145        "capabilities",146        "product_status"147      ],148      "checked_at": "2026-11-02",149      "title": "MySQL Documentation",150      "note": "Lists reference manuals for 8.0, 8.4, 9.7, 26.7 and 26.10"151    },152    {153      "url": "https://github.com/mysql/mysql-server/blob/trunk/LICENSE",154      "type": "license_page",155      "supports": [156        "license_spdx",157        "source_model"158      ],159      "checked_at": "2026-11-02",160      "title": "MySQL Server LICENSE (GPLv2 with Universal FOSS Exception)"161    },162    {163      "url": "https://github.com/mysql/mysql-server",164      "type": "repository",165      "supports": [166        "repo_url"167      ],168      "checked_at": "2026-11-02",169      "title": "mysql/mysql-server"170    }171  ],172  "confidence": "medium",173  "uncertainty_note": "www.mysql.com and dev.mysql.com return HTTP 403 to non-browser clients; both pages were loaded today through a browser-like fetcher.
