title: How to Call Java Code from MySQL?
body: <p>I found an article from 2008 discussing how to <a href="http://planet.mysql.com/entry/?id=13420" rel="noreferrer">call Java code from MySQL</a>. There were a lot of caveats and disclaimers because the process involved working with an experimental branch of MySQL.</p>
  
  <p>For a project I have in mind, it would be very useful to be be able to access Java libraries within MySQL, analogous to Oracle's <a href="http://www.oracle.com/technology/tech/java/jsp/index.html" rel="noreferrer">Java Stored Procedures</a>. Does this capability now exist as a standard feature of MySQL? If not, what open source RDBMSs support something similar to Oracle's Java Stored Procedures?</p>
