# MySQL family (roadmap)

**Status: Roadmap (Phase 2).** pREST does **not** ship a MySQL or MariaDB adapter yet. Current releases speak the **PostgreSQL** wire protocol only.

*Last updated: July 11, 2026* · **Label:** Roadmap

***

## Planned coverage

One MySQL-family adapter is intended to unlock:

* MySQL
* MariaDB (separate dialect profile over time)
* Amazon Aurora MySQL
* TiDB (after compatibility testing)
* Some Vitess / PlanetScale-style deployments after testing

Intended SEO/product pages later: MySQL REST API, MySQL MCP, MariaDB REST API, Aurora MySQL REST API, TiDB REST API — each with original matrices, not name-only clones.

***

## What works today

Use [PostgreSQL](/databases/postgresql.md) or a [certified Postgres-compatible engine](/databases.md). There is **no** supported `mysql://` connection path in current `prestd` builds.
