MySQL is much cheaper to run and host in AWS that SQL Server or other relational database vendor options yet provides all the features that a full professional heavy duty database needs.

The tooling and performance are not quite up to the quality of Microsoft SQL Server however that is a small price to pay really.

MySQL stores data safely and securely for us at a cost that is not too prohibitive.

Postgres and Amazon offerings
A really powerful open source RDBMS

There is nothing really to dislike, it does what it says and does it really well. I have yet to come across a limitation in my usage of MySQL in the 12+ years of using it.

Database system for a variety of websites - mostly Magento setups.

For the longest time, a great DB product, with growing stability

Occasionally, and upgrade on a Ubuntu box may not work properly when automated, but there's plenty of documentation from others out there who've experienced the same thing

Great capabilities, requires training
What do you like best about the product?

What do you dislike about the product?
It was not an intuitive program. As a young professional I hadn't been taught SQL so I had to find free training in order to complete my project tasks.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We're able to compare and query large data sets that would have taken significantly longer with any other program. We mostly use it for research data analysis and finding potential research participants that fit eligibility requirements.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
As an opensource tool you really can't go wrong with trying it out. We've been able to enhance our data analysis greatly with this tool.
Best Open Source Database

Easy to get started with a database. Simplicity in Feature implementation like replication and storage engines is the best part. SQL is pretty simple to play with in mysql. I have been using mysql for past 11 years and have always enjoyed working with it.

Limitations in community version. even though mysql is open source but features like PAM authentication is only available to enterprise mysql.

Scalability and cost effectiveness without compromising on performance
MySQL is scaleable and can be used on different platforms
What do you like best about the product?
The fact that Oracle MySQL is an excellent choice for multi-platform environments makes it a lot more desirable than SQL Server. It is as capable and the performance is on par with any other database in existence today.
What do you dislike about the product?
Porting a MySQL application to Microsoft SQL Server, or to a competing SQL database engine, requires a significant amount work. SQL Server is backward compatible, MySQL in comparison not so much.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We are a giant retail company that operates thousands of stores throughout America and many more abroad. We use MySQL to manage active store information, among other things. I have realized that SQL in MySQL workbench makes it very easy for us to work with our stores data/database. It is highly customization and the UI is extremely flexible.
