Oracle is taking steps to "repair" its relationship with the MySQL community, according to sources, by moving "commercial-only" features into the database application's Community Edition and prioritizing developer needs. The "new era" was discussed at a pre-FOSDEM MySQL and Friends event in Belgium. According to a summary seen by The Register, it focused on reinvigorating the MySQL community after a period under Big Red's watch in which the project's headcount fell and developers considered alternatives to the venerable database.

Developers can now use search and vector search functionality in MongoDB Community Edition and Enterprise Server. These capabilities were previously only available in the Atlas cloud service. During the MongoDB.local NYC conference, MongoDB announced that search and vector search will be available for local installations. The previews are intended for development and testing. Until now, developers and organizations that wanted to use these features had to rely on the fully managed MongoDB Atlas cloud service.
