Open Source Databases: As The Tables Turn

"My July Article comparing PostgreSQL and MySQL caused a stir that really surprised me. Of course, users of both databases called the tests rigged one way or the other, even though I noted that both databases had their strong points under various circumstances.

All that aside, we've been running into some rather grim and serious MySQL problems on SourceForge - most of which are directly related to MySQL's table-level locking mechanism. To give us some breathing room, we've been running a Beta version of MySQL with pretty good success.

Those problems and other MySQL limitations have caused me to evaluate database alternatives, first Interbase (apparently a dead end), then PostgreSQL."
