MySQL: A tool to be used with any web application
Overall Satisfaction with MySQL
It is being used by 90% of products that my organization has developed. All the products that are in the development phase or in production are using MySQL. The project that I'm working on is an IoT-based ERP system and we are using MySQL to store the machine data coming from the production site.
Pros
- It is easy to understand.
- It works well with most of the popular programming languages.
- It is better and cheaper than other relational database services available in market.
Cons
- I would love to see some updates in the UI part of it.
- They should work on their documentation. Make it more readable by changing fonts.
- ROI is high, as it is a cheaper and better solution.
- As it is easy to understand and implement, it saves us a lot of time in training new developers.
I have also used Microsoft SQL Server. It is quite similar to MySQL. However, MySQL has always been my first choice, I have been using it for a very long time. I have also worked with PostgreSQL in a DevOps project. It is good too but a bit hard to learn and understand.
