Open Source Database

What do you like best? Mysql has one paid version and one free version. It works with any operating system (Linux, Windows, Mac, etc. and can be managed with multiple different programs, that way you can use the one that suits you according to the type of Database you are using. What do you dislike? The main drawback that I find is that particularly the first occasion when it is introduced and arranged is important to have at least information to make a right design and without issues, as ...

MySQL for interopability

What do you like best? There still remain open-source apps that don't work with postgres- these are our biggest use-cases for mysql. I like how starting from scratch in mysql is a bit easier than postgres, but once you learn postgres this isn't an issue. This probably explains mysql's lasting dominance over postgres, which is also free. Mysql is multi-platform and available for all of the operating systems I develop under (Ubuntu Linux, OS X; also available for Windows - most easily as ...

Very reliable DB Manager

What do you like best? I use it on linux, but it can be used on any OS without any problems. It doesnt use much resources compared to other DB Managers, allowing you to install it on a wide array of computers / servers. Internet its full of documentation, FAQ, Q&A with almost all the information and solutions for any problem. What do you dislike? It can be easy to get lost on all the features it provides, requiring a minimum of previous knowledge for making a good use of it. If you ...

MySQL review

What do you like best? MySQL is open source software that allows anyone to use it and modify it. Anyone can download the MySQL source code and use it without paying. Anyone interested can study the source code and adjust it to their needs. What do you dislike? A large percentage of MySQL utilities are not documented. The support for triggers is basic so there are certain limitations in what can be done with them. Privileges for a table are not automatically deleted when a table is ...

Flexible scalable and admin friendly database

What do you like best? Easy to set up a database and get it running quickly, while still being flexible enough to modify at a later date, if you need to add more complexity, relationships, etc. It just works and setting up a connection to a local host or a remote server is super easy. What do you dislike? The GUI doesn't always work the way you'd expect it too, which is kinda strange but remedied by using SQL statements to do it. Not a big deal but its strange that this happens. I've run ...

I only had problems with some log tables, but besides that MySQL has worked without any kind of problem for various years. Recommendations to others considering the ...
