"With the latest MySQL 5.7 development milestone release, Oracle continues to drive MySQL innovation with predictable and consistent releases to closely address user requirements for their modern web, cloud and embedded applications." The MySQL Community Edition 5.7.2 DMR, which is available for download in the MySQL Developer Zone, delivers faster connectivity, higher transaction throughput, increased replication speed, memory instrumentation and other enhancements to enable higher performance and improved manageability. Oracle is also providing early access to features under development for community testing and feedback including "mysqlfabric" for scale out through sharding, and multi-source replication. ![Pete Prestipino](https://www.websitemagazine.com/hubfs/Pete%20Prestipino.jpeg) [Pete Prestipino](https://www.websitemagazine.com/web-development/author/pete-prestipino) Digital marketing executive with proven experience in all aspects of search engine optimization (SEO), performance-based advertising, consumer-generated/social media, email marketing, lead generation, Web design, usability, and analytics. - 20-year Internet marketing veteran, currently serving as the Digital Marketing Campaign Manager at Antenna Group (formerly Chicago Digital). - Former Editor-In-Chief of Website Magazine, and a regular speaker on Web technology digital marketing strategy - Author of several books on digital marketing Including Web 360: The Fundamentals of Web Success; Affiliate 360: The Fundamentals of Performance Marketing; Domains 360: The Fundamentals of Buying & Selling Domain Names, and SEO 360: The Fundamentals of Search Engine Optimization. - - - [mailto:peter@websitemagazine.com](mailto:peter@websitemagazine.com) #### Popular Post ### [How to Embed AI in your Enterprise App ![How to Embed AI in your Enterprise App](https://www.websitemagazine.com/hubfs/Imported_Blog_Media/unsplash-41618c-2-1-1-1.gif)](https://www.websitemagazine.com/web-development/how-to-embed-ai-in-your-enterprise-app) ### [How to Use Plugins in WordPress ![How to Use Plugins in WordPress](https://www.websitemagazine.com/hubfs/Imported_Blog_Media/WordPress-Logo-1.png)](https://www.websitemagazine.com/web-development/how-to-use-plugins-in-wordpress) ### [Top 10 Tips to Build a Google-Friendly Site ![Top 10 Tips to Build a Google-Friendly Site](https://www.websitemagazine.com/hubfs/Imported_Blog_Media/pexels-photo-1015568-1-1.jpg)](https://www.websitemagazine.com/web-development/top-10-tips-to-build-a-google-friendly-site) #### Subscribe to Our Newsletter!
