Drizzle failed because it didn't have a use case that made it clearly better than MySQL. It's hard to displace an incumbent DBMS, because they take a long to time to mature internally as well as develop a productive ecosystem.

Clearly I am joking, but the selling point was supposed to be that it provided a lean, mean, modernized MySQL replacement. I think the problem was that replacements under the hood don’t necessarily translate to an improved UX.
