Bonjour,
MySQL vient d’annoncer la disponibilité immédiate de la première version alpha de son prochain système de gestion de bases de données : MySQL 6.0.
Cette nouvelle version intègre de nouveaux moteurs de stockage comme Falcon et Maria. Pour rappel, Falcon est un moteur transactionnel libre et successeur d’InnoDB (devenu propriété d’Oracle) ; Maria, pour sa part, améliore le moteur MyISAM avec des dispositifs de sécurité contre les failles.
La communauté est appelée à essayer cette version alpha afin de détecter les problèmes d’utilisabilité, de proposer des améliorations ou des correctifs, etc. : http://forge.mysql.com/wiki/Contributing
Dear MySQL users,
MySQL 6.0.6-alpha, a new version of the MySQL database system has
been released. The main page for MySQL 6.0 release is athttp://www.mysql.com/mysql60/
MySQL 6.0 includes two new storage engines: the transactional
Falcon engine, and the crash-safe Maria engine.If you are new to the Falcon storage engine and need more
information, please read the Falcon Evaluation Guide athttp://www.mysql.com/why-mysql/white-papers/falcon-getting-started.php
and the Falcon White Paper at
http://www.mysql.com/why-mysql/white-papers/storage-engines-falcon.php
The Maria storage engine is a crash safe version of MyISAM. Maria
supports all of the main functionality of the MyISAM engine, but
includes recovery support (in the event of a system crash), full
logging (including CREATE, DROP, RENAME and TRUNCATE operations),
all MyISAM row formats and a new Maria specific row format. Maria
is documented athttp://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/6.0/en/se-maria.html
MySQL 6.0.6-alpha is available in source and binary form for a
number of platforms from our download pages athttp://dev.mysql.com/downloads/mysql/6.0.html
and mirror sites. Note that not all mirror sites may be up to date
