Pros: Probably the fastest and definitely the easiest. Loads of online information available. Cons: No stored procedures and triggers.
MySQL was the first database system that I worked with and despite it's shortcomings, I have to admit that it works like a charm. It's definitely one of the most prevalent RDBMS on the internet.
Pros: MySQL is free. Cons: In this case, you get what you pay for.
I've been reading lot's about open source databases as of late. There's a reason for this and that is one of my client's moved from Microsoft SQL Server 2000 to MySQl 4.1.7. Now let me be clear about the key issue here: my client didn't chose MySQL ...
Pros: free, widely supported, Cons: 5.03 still not production quality, but expect that to change quickly! setup options COMPLEX
This is a complete update of this original review. Here is the original review below, with bracketed sentences indicating the update. --------------- When deciding which DBMS to go with, there are a lot of considerations besides just how powerful ...
Pros: Fast, free, simple, powerful large support community Cons: no subselects or rollbacks
I don't know what to say. I use MySQL wherever possible! It has proved consistently fast, efficient, and easy to use. There are program hooks/API's for PHP and pretty much everything else I use.
Pros: free, reliable, robust, runs everywhere Cons: missing stored procs, triggers, views and more
Or triggers ... or views ... or any of the other little extras that separate this DB from the big boys. However I still have a soft little place in my heart reserved for mySQL. For "simple" data storage it works excellent. It is quick, has a...
Pros: open-source, fast, stable, free, secure. Cons: not rollback option, no stored procedures supported.
Well, I always had a feeling like loosing my faith, when I used something free to put it in the business arena. “I don’t pay for it, so forget the support” I told my self. “I have to do it all myself. That it.” Is really that way?
...
Pros: Fast, stable, and easy to use Cons: Lacks some of the more complex capabilities of the larger commercial database servers.
I have only been working with relational databases for less one year. I started developing static web sites with html over two years ago. Last year I decided I wanted to learn how these big companies serve up dynamic content to their web sites. ...
Pros: free, fast, compact, multiplatform, ODBC support Cons: limited SQL
MySQL 3.23 is a very stable SQL server with very high performance.
The server is freely available for almost any Unix platform (Linux, Solaris, HP-UX, Irix, True64, etc.) and at very low price (about $170) for the WIN32 version.
Pros: Speed of Accessing Cons: Installation can be tough
I've been looking for awhile now for the best solution to high demand cgi applications demanding information. I come from a Perl background and that's what I use primarily to control the mySQL DB.
Pros: lots of support, easy to learn and use, fast, free Cons: does not have all of the features of an Enterprise class SQL server
I honestly believe that MySQL is the best solution for a non-Enterprise level website that needs access to a database to provide content. Add PHP to the mix and you have a fast, simple way to build an active website. I am using the PHP/MySQL...
MY SQL is definitively not for everyone but if you can get through the techie install and the often frustrating command line you will find a fast and dependeble relational database fro a variety of needs.
