VillageSQL Server for MySQL is an open-source, drop-in replacement for
MySQL 8.4 that adds an extension framework: custom data types and
functions are loaded at run time with INSTALL EXTENSION. This snap builds
VillageSQL from source and lets extensions be shipped as separate snaps
connected through the content interface.
Snaps are applications packaged with all their dependencies to run on all popular Linux distributions from a single build. They update automatically and roll back gracefully.
Snaps are discoverable and installable from the Snap Store, an app store with an audience of millions.
