It's an open source venture backed by $35M from FirstMark Capital, Spark Capital, and GV (Google Ventures). It's a drop-in replacement for MySQL with an extension architecture. See their native UUID extension with efficient 16-byte storage as an example.

I guess it's cool - you can port some stuff from Postgres like pgVector and make Mysql a vector database.

On the other hand, I'm also think 'why?'. At some point just use Postgres instead of overcomplicating Mysql with extensions
