Review of MySQL usage in Financial Services
What do you like best about the product?
MySQL is very user-friendly while at the same time being a very efficient source for creating complex queries and easily creating and interacting with new tables. Also it is very easy to use through the MAC terminal as well as through a relational database software such as Sequel Pro
What do you dislike about the product?
This is not particular to MySQL but there seems to be very subtle, but when querying, there are debilitating differences when going through SQL languages which causes disconnects and errors that take longer to debug than should be necessary.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
The main business problem I think I am able to solve in MySQL is being able to unite data to create a singular source of truth for our userbase. Whenever there are numerous tables that all contain information about a customer or a user base, but are not connected in a way that is easy and efficient to be able to answer business questions for business users, as an analyst it is very efficient for me to use MySQL to join up the relevant columns and tables from multiple databases to be able to answer specific questions business users have. For instance, if we have customer sales data in one table in a specific database, but I would like to know how this relates to the number of interactions they have had with our product, and that happens to live in another table in another DB, MySQL makes it easy to cut out the pieces that may not be needed to answer that business question, join the necessary components, and produce the most intuitive output.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Ability to hold numerous tables with a much larger data structure and data amount that currently available.
The database for Open Source Software
What do you like best about the product?

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Collecting data in the mysql db
My SQL Review
What do you like best about the product?
My SQL is extremely easy to learn and use and with basic Database concepts knowledge, one can actually start using it.
What do you dislike about the product?
It is not suited for all business use cases.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Day to day relational data maintenance, scalability
Great tool to measure and monitor database
What do you like best about the product?
I like the query analyzer as it helps me optimize my queries, making and learning different techniques to fit the type of database / environment that I'm working with. It tells me which sub query is using more resources all in a simple graph / chart type design.
What do you dislike about the product?
Not so much a dislike but I need to find new techniques myself and apply it and analyze the query analyzer again to see what's causing high loads.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
MySQL is helping solve issues with long query / query that stall / break mid stream. Optimization for the query is great for both the company and myself as I get the results that I need and the database has more resource for the business to use.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Although there is a learning curve when learning all the different functionalities and how it applies to your circumstances, but it is a great tool to use and will provide a lot of benefits once you learn all the functionalities.
Fastest out of the box database solution with wide support.
What do you like best about the product?
MySQL is the core of any LAMP stack web solution. It has wide industry support and simple mechanics. Recently, there has been new competition in this space, but I would argue that they require more maintenance and internal knowledge. If you are deploying a db solution without a support contract, MySQL is hard to beat.
What do you dislike about the product?
MySQL is a quick and easy solution, but careful attention is required to insure that the db is optimized for the application. Small-scale applications work great with MySQL out of the box, however.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
The main benefit to MySQL comes from it's wide adoption. It is very easy to manage and community knowledge is high.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
MySQL is very reliable. I have used it for a dozen or so websites. The only out of the box limitation comes from scalabilty issues. These are easily remedied by plugins and additional hardware and configuration. But keep in mind, that if you are expecting high traffic application design is very important when implementing MySQL.

I would recommend My SQL to anyone who would like to get started in programming in SQL DB

My SQL is very user friendly any beginner can use it. I was able to look up everything I need to know on how to program using My SQL, with MS access as the front end client.
What do you dislike about the product?
My SQL has it's limitations, when it comes to programming when compared to MS SQL. There is only so much Data it can hold before it reaches its maximum capacity.

I used to use MYSQL to create a DB for inventory, I have since moved to MS SQL DB since my DB grew to capacity for MYSQL. I still on some occasions program some small tools in
Recommendations to others considering the product:
This is great for beginners, but if you expect to use a lot of Data you are better off with MS SQL
