This document discusses new features in MySQL 5.7 and NoSQL support in MySQL. Some key points:
- MySQL 5.7 includes improvements to InnoDB for better transactional performance and scalability, as well as enhancements to replication, security, and other areas.
- NoSQL support allows direct access to MySQL data via Memcached APIs for simpler and faster key-value access while maintaining ACID guarantees.
- Benchmarks show NoSQL inserts into MySQL can be up to 9x faster than SQL inserts, and MySQL 5.7 can achieve over 1 million queries per second.
