Most popular, free, open source, Enterprise-ready database management system!

  • November 03, 2018
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Very easy to set up; just a few commands!

High reliability and fault-tolerance; data corruption is highly unlikely!

Great performance, even at high-volume traffic; will usually never go down, unless you run out of disk or memory!

Excellent documentation and community support

Supports advanced clustering and high-availability deployments
What do you dislike about the product?
The GPL license, which prevents vendors from bundling MySQL with their own products

Clustering/HA can be challenging, and associated licensing costs are high

The JDBC protocol implementation doesn't offer chunking, making it difficult to transfer large payloads (e.g. blobs) via Java processes (sufficient memory should be allocated so that the full payload can be read into memory during transfer).
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We use MySQL as the DBMS component of many of our integration products and SaaS solutions.
Many of our customers also use MySQL in their own custom-tailored solutions, sometimes in clustered mode for enterprise use.

MySQL has been running smoothly with almost all our solutions over the course of several years, with zero trouble and near-zero maintenance.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
If looking for advanced transactional features like skip-lock row locking, double-check that your MySQL server version supports it.

If there's a need to enable clustering/HA in the long run, consider the costs up-front before settling with MySQL.

If your client is Java, consider your maximum payload (e.g. blob) sizes and corresponding memory requirements at design and deployment.

Make sure you understand the licensing terms before integrating MySQL server/client libraries into your shipped software products.

Easy to Deploy and Use

  • November 03, 2018
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
As someone who isn't a networking professional, I was able to get MySQL setup on an Ubuntu server by myself and with only minimal assistance from online resources.
What do you dislike about the product?
Nothing really. What is there to dislike about a free product that is easy to use and an industry standard?
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I needed a fairly easy web solution and needed a LAMP system in order to setup Wordpress. By being able to install Wordpress (which doesn't happen without MySQL easily) it let me setup a professional blog for a writer friend. And it didn't take me 20 years to get it all setup. The easiest part was getting MySQL set up.

MySQL Review

  • November 02, 2018
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
My SQL is a relation database and is open source unlike other RDBMS which are very expensive. It is very easy to use and the installation and setup is also very easy. MySQL also provides stored procedure and trigger which is very helpful in case you want to perform some action on a specific time or you want to perform some action on meeting some criteria.
What do you dislike about the product?
MySQL database is not able to handle when the data size grows and it impact the query performance drastically. As it is open source so the support provides is very minimal.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
MySQL we are using to storing relation entity of our application. MySQL is easy to use and there are lot of connector available based on the kind of technologies you are using
Recommendations to others considering the product:
MySQL database is very useful when your application is not very huge and you have a data in GB and not in tera or petabyte. As it is open source it helps in local setup and if you are doing any POC for some application we can use it directly without worrying about the cost.
