MySQL 4.0 in a Nutshell
Dateline: 16 October 2001, Uppsala, Sweden
Long promised by MySQL AB and long awaited by our users, MySQL server 4.0 is now available in alpha version for download from http://www.mysql.com/ and our mirrors.
Main new features of MySQL server 4.0 are geared toward our existing business and community users, enhancing the MySQL database software as the solution for mission-critical, heavy-load database systems. Other new features target the users of embedded databases.
Stepwise Rollout
The rollout of MySQL server 4.0 will come in several steps, with the first version labelled 4.0.0 already containing most of the new features. Additional features will be incorporated into MySQL 4.0.1, 4.0.2, and onward; very probably within a couple of months, MySQL 4.0 will be labelled beta. Further new features will then be added in MySQL 4.1, which was targeted for alpha release in third quarter 2002.
Ready for Immediate Development Use
Users are not recommended to switch their production systems to MySQL server 4.0 until it is released in beta version. However, even the initial release has passed our extensive test suite without any errors on any of the platforms we test on. Due to the large number of new features, we thus recommend MySQL server 4.0 even in alpha form for development use, with the release schedule of MySQL server 4.0 being such that it will reach stable state before the deployment of user applications now under development.
