Dear MySQL users,

The X DevAPI enables application developers to write code that combines the strengths of the relational and document models using a modern, NoSQL-like syntax that does not assume previous experience writing traditional SQL.

By now you’ve read Mike Frank’s excellent introduction to the MySQL 8.0 release and it’s Document Store. In that post Mike laid out the benefits of the new Document Store model and briefly outlined the different components involved. While it’s fair to consider the Document Store as the first pillar of the new MySQL 8 Document story, we must identify the X DevAPI to be the second. The post covers our motivation, goals, and overall design principles of this new API.
Motivation
Most of our connectors have not implemented their own API. Rather, most of them implement externally defined interfaces.

The Document Store is accessible by the X DevAPI, an API that introduces a new modern and easy-to-learn way to …

General information about MySQL Connector/ODBC 8.0:
MySQL Connector/ODBC 8.0 is a successor of the Connector/ODBC 5.3
line.
The Connector/ODBC driver 8.0 becomes available starting from the
version 8.0.11.
Where is 8.0.10? The family of MySQL products is growing and with so many products and different versions it is easy to get confused about functionality and product compatibility. Therefore, we decided to unify the versioning and synchronize the version numbers across all MySQL products. The current GA version of MySQL Server is 8.0.11 and the family of MySQL Connectors including Connector/ODBC has been aligned with the new versioning model and became 8.0.11 too. This will ensure that Connector/ODBC 8.0.11 can work with MySQL Server 8.0.11.
Among bug fixes and internal improvements the Connector/ODBC 8.0.11 received the support for a new authentication methods introduced in MySQL Server 8.0. These new …
