MySQL is 20 years old tomorrow!

According to Wikipedia, the initial release of MySQL was 23 May 1995. This places it at 20 years old young tomorrow.

2015 is actually a year of anniversaries. As well as MySQL reaching the big two-oh, we are also celebrating 10 years of InnoDB under the stewardship of Oracle, and five years of MySQL @ Oracle.

Please make sure toast to MySQL this weekend!

I joined MySQL AB in 2006, left, and am now back at Oracle working on the MySQL team. I’ve also worked at Percona and InPowered.
