Hi Amoro Developers, Recently, the PPMC team found some issues[1] with the descriptions related to the usage of MySQL dependencies in the Amoro project. The team has actively worked to improve this part of the documentation[2], and we are now officially informing all Amoro developers and users of these changes.
Apache Amoro (incubating) is a lakehouse management system that continuously optimizes data within the lakehouse, ensuring efficient query performance. Amoro leverages an RDBMS for state management, enabling high availability and seamless version upgrades. While Amoro defaults to Apache Derby, it also supports other JDBC-compliant RDBMS systems, including PostgreSQL and MySQL. For production environments, PostgreSQL is the recommended choice. Due to MySQL's GPL license, its use in production is discouraged. If you choose to use MySQL, you must download the necessary dependency packages from the Maven repository, place them in Amoro's lib directory, and accept the implications of the MySQL license. Wishing you a Happy Chinese New Year! [1] https://github.com/apache/amoro/issues/3404 [2] https://github.com/apache/amoro/pull/3416 Congxian
