The location was very special as it was in one auditorium of Polytech, the oldest university in the city of Mons.

- MySQL as Document Store with JSON datatype & X plugin
Those are very new technologies illustrating MySQL’s innovation. And of course there is much more to come with MySQL 8 !

active:active multi-master replication, it takes a while before
companies are adopting the software in production database
environment.
For example, even though MySQL 5.7 has been GA for more than a
