This document provides an overview of MySQL 8.0 and its new features. It introduces Kenny Gryp and Frédéric Descamps, who discuss how MySQL is the second most popular database and most popular open source database. They highlight new SQL features in MySQL 8.0 like common table expressions and window functions. The document also shows how MySQL now supports NoSQL features like JSON and CRUD operations without using SQL. It discusses the new query execution architecture and performance improvements from features like hash joins. Finally, it introduces MySQL InnoDB Cluster for high availability and MySQL Group Replication for active-active replication across data centers.

14. "This is a landmark release as MySQL
eventually evolved beyond SQL-92 and the
purely relational dogma. Among a few other
standard SQL features, MySQL now
supports window functions (over) and
common table expressions (with). Without a
doubt, these are the two most important
post-SQL-92 features.”

Used for inner equi-joins
Extendable to outer, semi and anti joins
Replaces BNL in query plans
