  1. Re:The big question: on MySQL 5.0.0 (Alpha) Released · · Score: -1, Flamebait
    Is it now a real SQL database ?

    No. It is still lacking the following important features:

    • Stored procedures
    • Real transactions
    • ACID properties
    • Outer joins
    • Online backups facility
    • Adequate performance
    • Support for constraints
    • A professional telephone support hotline
    • Selecting from DUAL
    • ADO connector
    • Subqueries
    • Support fro GROUP BY
    • ...
    If you are looking for a commercial grade database, try this one instead!
  2. Re:Very nice on MySQL 5.0.0 (Alpha) Released · · Score: 0
    I've been wanting sub-queries and stored procedures for a couple of years now.

    Keep on waiting. These are not real subqueries. Stuff such as SELECT name FROM TABLE_1 WHERE id IN (SELECT eligible FROM TABLE_2) still does not work.

    Or, if you don't want to wait, use a professional commercial database

    The stored procedures are not real either, just check this link on MySQL's own site!

    I'd prefer any other database over Mysql. Even Microsoft SQL Server is better than MySQL. Anybody who'd run MySQL in a production setting should be fired on the spot, then drawn and quartered
