MYSQL 5.7 新增150多个新功能

http://www.thecompletelistoffeatures.com/

There are over 150 new features in MySQL 5.7.

The MySQL manual is very good, but verbose. This is a list of new features in short bullet form. I have tried very hard to make sure each feature is only mentioned once. So InnoDB native partitioning could be mentioned under either InnoDB or partitioning.

Download MySQL 5.7 GA
    or install from yum, apt or SUSE repo.
