The Future of the MySQL Ecosystem
A vendor-neutral nonprofit bringing together the MySQL ecosystem to share knowledge, collaborate openly, and build a strong, sustainable future.
How we show up for the MySQL community

OurSQL Universe is a community-maintained catalog of everything that makes MySQL tick — the people who build it, the companies that depend on it, the tools that extend it, and the resources that help you use it well. It grows because the community keeps it growing.
Help us keep it completeThe Universe is only as good as the community behind it. Add a project, update a profile, or suggest something we've missed.
Contribute →What's happening in the community
From conference talks to community calls — see what's coming up and catch up on what you've missed.
"By bringing the community together under an independent Foundation, we can show that MySQL has a vibrant future ahead of it."
