Easy, flexible, fast, and great for developing

  • February 27, 2018
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Easy, flexible, fast and free. It's so easy to install on a personal computer/laptop so you can practice and develop. It's also available for free as a standard install on all cloud computing hosts like AWS.

So for example I have a copy of a DB on my laptop and on AWS so I can develop and test on my laptop without even an internet connection and then deploy copies of my changes to the AWS instance.
What do you dislike about the product?
Workbench, the GUI software used to manage MySQL is buggy and often crashes. This is very challenging. So I use the older 5.2 version which has less features but is more stable.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We run web applications based on Django. And we run crawlers that store the data they capture to MySQL. We also use it as a back end for our custom reporting.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Definitely use Workbench for managing! Also, install and activate MySQL on your computer/laptop first to get acquainted

Easy installation, configuration and intonation, good performance in queries, supports different operating systems, is a handler that does not use many resources so it is easy to run on any hardware, The security is quite complete which allows the protection of the information stored in the database, MySQL can handle almost any amount of data from some rows to more than fifty million rows, Another important aspect is its use of memory. MySQL prevents memory leaks that allow forinformation storage effective solutions
What do you dislike about the product?
the non-documentation of some mysql utilities, SQL check constraints are not supported in MySQL. These are used to set a limit for values ​​within a column, Another common problem is, the size of the database. Although in theory it is scalable up to 8 TB, MySQL can not work efficiently with large database. In this context, other platforms such as Oracle and better and are efficient performer with large-scale data.

Currently I am using Mysql 5.6 and the database manager has been excellent to store our dining room system, it is agile with good performance and portable.

For my experience I recommend for applications that have good sql sentences and good database design to use this driver, which has a good performance and performance for the demands of the queries, Mysql can be installed with a free license, or it can also be installed if it is necessary to invest more in costs Enterprise

My MySQL Review

  • February 15, 2018
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
lightweight strong rich featured software, MySQL gives all functions needed to build basic and advanced software.
What do you dislike about the product?
One of the main issues I face in relational databases, I can't store and retrieve arrays of data
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
developing complex quires for different reports in seconds in my limited-capabilities local machine! I built a query to get the result of a table multiplied by itself of about 800 records (800*800), MySQL gives me about 700000 records in 30 seconds although I'm using few functions inside!

I like the speed of quires when built correctly!
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Use multiple databases, different users for everyone for the matter of security
don't use remote MySQL if you don't need to use your database remotely
add indices for frequently used fields
