It is fully ACID compliant and has full support + for foreign keys, joins, views, triggers, and stored procedures (in + multiple languages). It includes most SQL92 and SQL99 data types + and also supports storage of binary large objects.

It supports international character sets, multibyte + character encodings, Unicode, and it is locale-aware for sorting, + case-sensitivity, and formatting.
