MySQL

MySQL is a widely spread, multi-threaded, multi-user SQL database, developed by Oracle.

Arch Linux favors MariaDB, a community-developed fork of MySQL, aiming for drop-in compatibility. Oracle's MySQL was dropped to the AUR: mysql^AUR. Another fork aiming to be fully compatible is Percona Server, available as percona-server.

The InnoDB storage engine by Oracle was also forked by Percona as XtraDB. The fork is used by both MariaDB and Percona Server.

gollark: It is probably also true that in both instances of "rebuild from practically nothing" you lose a lot, but in the eldræverse case that losing a lot would still put them substantially above us.

gollark: Anyway, in the middle of that graph you get complex interdependent highly globalised societies like ours, except with no convenient shortcut to bootstrapping your technology again.

gollark: I'm talking about maintaining technology level, not exactly the entire society.
