I use Firebird SQL for desktop and client server development. For web I am using both FB and MySQL. Both are good. good luck!

I had to go Oracle since it was the only one i have ever used. Perhaps by next year i might have used another, hopefully!

mysql, all the php things i want to use are written with mysql

jabrealj · 01-02-2005, 06:06 PM

Mysql,, yeah right! I like it, a lot; especially because i'm a big fan of the OpenSource community, it's just not come along enough in the Database world to be considered an elite database. Additionally; i've come across to many security issues with mysql to yet consider it able to compete with Oracle, etc. Unfortunately, i gotta stick w/Oracle.

MySQL does everything reasonably well and it is easy to install and use. It makes a great DB for web applications although I prefer to use compiled CGI rather than PHP for speed with MySQL fro speed.

I voted for Firebird for being an enterprise-level database which in my opinion should be the basis for selecting a database. Not mention, the excellent support that Firebird communities providing.

In the oposite of MySQL, Postgresql knows the SQL Standard.
Postgresql supports nested transactions!
Postgresql can a lot more than any layman's db.

It can only be Postgre!! Thats the one!!
