Description:
MySQL's current extension mechanisms (plugins, components) have limitations that make it difficult to extend MySQL with new functionality without deep internal coupling. This feature request proposes improvements to MySQL's extensibility architecture to lower that barrier for all developers.

MySQL's component framework has matured into the project's preferred extensibility surface, but it doesn't yet reach the query engine — SQL data types, index access methods, SQL operators, and optimizer hooks remain outside the framework. This talk proposes growing the component framework into the query engine in phases, with VECTOR as the first use case. AWS is presenting this as a collaborative proposal to Oracle and the MySQL community, building on Oracle's existing component infrastructure rather than creating a competing one.
