Structured database to use

  • October 21, 2020
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
This is likely to be the best database for MySQL. It has many obstacles. In addition, it provides security, system wide compatibility, reliability, redundancy and more for users. It has a good password protection protection enabled that keeps it secure and robust to use. It has a good range of constructions that can be used to create any type of field that can store URLs, images, text, numbers, here we will keep blank fields to fill later, which is the default or Can be set to zero or blank.
What do you dislike about the product?
MySQL is the best database to use for every level of work, it can be either beginner level or master level. This provides a good service, but sometimes it limits the user to usability by entering the same exact data defined under the field. Also this field does not support multiple inputs at the point of instance which causes the creation of some more tables to handle the data.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Recently I have been involved with some django related project, where there was a need to set up a database to handle the data which should be secured and easily accessible data should be managed in future. At that time I used mysql because of the well-connectedness between compatibility, reliability, structured behavior and constraints. Apart from this it also allows to store a large dataset and can be accessed in no time. It also provides a good range of security algorithms, on which data will be protected.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
As I have discussed about it's wide usage it will definitely help to reduce effort and data linking time usage. Hence it would be recommended to use for the wellness and proficiency of the project or website.

Best RDBMS to start with

  • October 16, 2020
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
It's the best and one of the simplest RDBMS for a newbie to get started. I started learning this when I was early in school in my undergrad. To date, this remains my favorite.

The query and its syntax are easy to learn and grasp for a newbie.
What do you dislike about the product?
Well, there is nothing that I dislike about it. I used it in my grad school as well. At first, I was unhappy that it did not have a graphic based interface but then they came up with Microsoft workbench.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Whenever you need to store structured data, it offers a one-stop solution. You can store bulk data and it offers very easy management of this data. It is one of the most widely used databases for enterprise applications.

While I was in my previous organization. I had built a monitoring application which provided real-time monitoring for business-critical applications and underlying infrastructure. We used to store all monitoring data into MySQL and then retrieve this data for reporting. Without this database in place, there could be no way in which we could have provided reports. Not only could we store reports but also we could retrieve data as old as 12 months. We later did have a data warehouse in place which stored archived data. But MySQL was a critical component in the performance of the application as well.

Deploy cloud-native applications using the most common open-source platform in the world.

  • October 10, 2020
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
MySQL provides a very basic graphical user interface. I love it because it's not hard to understand the roles and commands. Also, the other best thing I've experienced is that it's got very full and quick import and export tools. Another favorite aspect that helped me a lot is that there is a variety of helpful documentation on the web in various languages. On the other hand, it runs very well on Linux servers, which are the ones that we have in the company. Another major benefit I have experienced while using it is that It is the best method for building data tables to manage and archive data in a standardized manner. It is conveniently compatible with other app programs.
What do you dislike about the product?
I'd say the biggest downside I've come across when using it is that MySQL does not support very large storage sizes efficiently. The main disadvantage for me is the size of the data and it creates an inconsistency when dealing with massive datasets. There are low output scaling and reliability problems. It also does not support stored procedures in versions other than version 5.0. Often it hangs quite a bit because of queries that return a huge number of rows. Also, I have found that it becomes impossible to move that huge database to another server. It is fine at an early point, but not long-lasting.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
MySQL Database Service is a completely managed database service designed to deploy cloud-native software leveraging the most common open-source database in the world. It is 100% developed, controlled, and sponsored by the MySQL Team.

Open source, best in class

  • October 01, 2020
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Its the best opensource database I have used so far.
Its capacity of holding a large amount of data and good performance makes it a popular choice.
It can be connected with multiple user interfaces like MySQL Workbench, HeidiSQL etc.
What do you dislike about the product?
Due to large databases, sometimes its performance downgrades. To improve this there is much effort is needed.
It hangs quite a bit sometimes for queries returning large numbers of rows.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
By providing feedback to MYSQL blogs I have got positive response and seen improvements in the latest releases of MYSQL.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Best in its class. Highly recommendable relational database. By using it you will start loving it.

Best known tool to handle database

  • September 30, 2020
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
This is the best example used for database tools. It is an excellent tool for creating, deleting and manipulating data in a database. It is easy to use and very reliable in nature. It is an open source tool which makes it open to reach and develop new heights of development in the region. At the same time it is a bit expensive which makes it different from other devices and sets the best example for widespread use of devices.
What do you dislike about the product?
Mysql is an efficient and optimized tool to use, but again despite excellent support it offers some relatively scalability issues that make it relatively poor to use in an open manner. Development in the database is not community-driven.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
During my final evaluation I have to setup an entire website to show the authentication and functionality of my backend code. And I relied on database SQL to deal with data. But sometimes a tool was needed to fix some errors in the data that would help me manipulate the data in the database. At that time I used mysql and found that it was very easy and attractive to use the tool in an easy and effective way.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Wide usage and extensive functionality makes it a perfect and must tool to use for the developers. It is recommended to every kind of developer who deals with the databases.

Best Suited Database Server for Student

  • September 30, 2020
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Some of the major advantages of MySQL include data security, on-demand, scalability, high performance, the flexibility of open source, reduce the total cost of ownership as you will use it to make your own server, it comes with 24x7 assurance and a lot of solutions available on the forum for a different type of problems.
What do you dislike about the product?
MySQL does not support a very large database size as efficiently, it also does not support ROLE, COMMIT, and stored procedures in the versions less than 5.0. Transactions are not supported efficiently. There are some stability issues. It also suffers from poor performance scaling.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I am a full stack developer and MySQL is my first choice for the backend. since this is an open-source therefore I can use it for free and also it is way easier to access as compared to oracle. It comes with a server and a workbench, by which I could apply all the operations without writing a single query.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
I recommend this to all students, developers who wish to work in the backend.

The best database to use

  • September 22, 2020
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
MySQL supports a detailed documentation that is the best and functions every part of it. This documentation will be updated from time to time. It also supports a wide range of operating systems to support execution and since it is an open source product, there is no license fee to use it in any way. It's queries are easy to write and understand and can be used efficiently at places.
What do you dislike about the product?
It does not support any property of isolation and atomicity for queries. It is very expensive from the hardware side and uses too much RAM in backend runs. There it takes a lot of time when getting data with multiple sub-queries and even when we try to fetch a table with multiple rows of data.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
As I am a web developer and prefer django as a back-end Python based web framework, in which we always need some databases for protecting and storing our data, but with security we need a database that is easy to use and there is some systematic way to fetch data in an efficient manner. There I have to use mysql tool as a controller of my database built on sql server. This tool helps me easily view, update, delete data without interfering with the python backend code of the website.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
This tool is itself has a brand in the market and is the first choice of every developer these days. This would be recommended for any type of data from small scale to extensively large scale.
