Vitess Now Supports Recursive CTEs: A Step Closer to Full MySQL Compatibility

We are excited to announce that Vitess now supports recursive Common Table Expressions (CTEs), marking another significant step in our journey to fully align with MySQL’s capabilities. Recursive CTEs, often a critical feature for complex query handling, allow for the execution of recursive queries within a single CTE. This addition brings more flexibility and power to developers using Vitess, especially those working with distributed databases.
