Re:A new write and space optimized storage engine for MySQL ... by hingo on Thursday October 08, 2026 @08:17AM (#50004902)
My understanding is that Meta continues to use MySQL and specifically MySQL, but have decided they aren't investing in upgrading to the newer MySQL versions. And possibly their fork contains a lot of custom patches beyond just MyRocks. So as a consequence of this decision they no longer support MyRocks for newer versions of MySQL and otoh MySQL no longer supports the 5.x versions.
