Scalingo for MySQL® Overview

MySQL®

MySQL® is a free and open-source relational database management system. It is known for its reliability, ease of use, and performance, making it one of the most popular database systems in the world. It is well-suited for a wide range of applications, from small-scale websites to large-scale enterprise solutions.

Scalingo for MySQL®

Scalingo for MySQL® (Community Edition) is our official MySQL® addon. We have several plans available from which you can choose depending on your needs and budget. As always, a free plan is available for you to test our offer.

Please make sure to also see Features and Limitations to get a comprehensive view of what is included in our offers.

Life-Cycle

At Scalingo, we focus on providing stable and well-supported MySQL® versions for production workloads. That’s why we chose to focus on the LTS releases of MySQL®, which are shipped every 2 years.

Our managed service currently includes version 8.0.x, with plans to introduce version 8.4 (LTS) in a near future.

When we release a new LTS version, we also progressively stop supporting the previous one, encouraging our customers to migrate towards the latest one.

Once the oldest LTS version has reached its End Of Life, we may enforce the upgrade to the newest LTS version.

Each major version we provide benefits from minor upgrades including critical bug fixes and security patches. New features are only added with new major versions.

Available Version
