MaxSQL is a MySQL distribution compiled with Sleepycat software's BerkeleyDB
support for transactions. MaxSQL will be released under the GNU GPL licence
as soon as BerkelyDB transactional tables are sufficiently stable and functional
to pass our test suite. The release is scheduled to the end of August. Users can
evaluate the current state of our transactional code by installing the lastest
3.1 version of BerkeleyDB available from Sleepycat, and then compiling MySQL on
their systems with a special option (--with-berkeley-db).
Please note that MaxSQL is not an independent product, but the working name of an expanded version of MySQL. More information on MaxSQL will be released on this site later.
