Powerful, open-source relational database management system
MySQL is the world's most popular open-source relational database management system, powering many of the world's most accessed applications. MySQL delivers a multi-threaded, multi-user, and robust SQL database server. It is designed to be used for mission-critical, heavy-load production systems. MySQL is fast, reliable, and powerful.
For enhanced security, this snap uses strict confinement, paired with a rootless daemon. It also requires you to set a password for the MySQL root user, as passwordless login via the Linux root user is not allowed (hence the strict suffix).
Note: During installation, a randomly generated password will be created for the MySQL root user. You can retrieve it using the following command:
sudo mysql-strict.rootpass
Commands:
mysql-strict.mysql
mysql-strict.mysqladmin
mysql-strict.mysqldump
mysql-strict.mysqlimport
Tip: For convenience, you can create command aliases using snapd's alias feature.
sudo snap alias mysql-strict.mysql mysql
This way, you can now simply log into the MySQL server with just:
mysql -u root -p
