Stable and cost effective DB system
What do you like best about the product?
MySQL has proven that it can be a serious choice for enterprise level software. I find this product intuitive in a lot of ways -in terms of interacting with it as a user. It has been growing although not as fast as it needs to to be competitive. Some great things working for MySQL: They have been making code more modular. In MySQL 5.6, they moved one of the crucial locks ( the LOCK_open) in the MySQL Server to modular code which has the potential to improve performance.
What do you dislike about the product?
Some of the features that allow MySQL to compete with noSQL technology are slow in coming. It lacks in maturity somewhat and some of the features I expect to be implemented by now are not there yet for example user security.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Its cost effective. We used it for small to medium scale operations.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Has potential

For transaction database and light weight saas development using micro service oriented architecture, mysql is the best database as far as I know. it works very well in my previous and current job.

Supply chain problems. Complex joins. In order to build reports though, we push this data to datawarehouse.
Mysql is flexible
What do you like best about the product?
Mysql is super tunable with lots of configurations to play around with. You could also use pluggable database engines like innodb or sphinx. I feel its very flexible add to it the benefits of being an opensource project.
What do you dislike about the product?
If the configurations are not tuned right in the first place it does take time to have it optimized for your usecase. Mysql is less intelligent in self optimizing to traffic compared with other popular database like oracle.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We are an ecommerce company and our traffic is served thru mysql as a transactional database. cost effective and does the job very well. we use inno db as our database engine.
MySQL at Houzz

It's intuitive and simple. I've been trained in Postgres but switching over has been seamless so far -- I'm new though so I haven't used as much mySQL as some of the other engineers.
What do you dislike about the product?
Honestly, nothing has jumped out at me that is unappealing.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
As a company, we are trying to modernize and simplify the process of home remodeling and design by bringing together homeowners, professionals and manufacturers in one platform.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
It's probably a good idea since as far as I know it's the most widely used RDBMS out there.
