Cloudflare announced the general availability of MySQL support in Hyperdrive, a database connection pooling service for the Workers platform, after fixing a protocol bug that caused empty responses or hangs in approximately 0.001% of cached requests.

The company reports early results including handling up to 850 requests per second, as well as an MCP experiment for accessing and managing content through agents.
