Hi!

>> Or should I look at the InnoDB tables (which are still considered beta).


InnoDB tables are classified as gamma by Innobase Oy and MySQL AB. The text
on the MySQL-Max download page is lagging behind (says beta), but to balance
it, on the front page MySQL AB classifies MySQL-Max as stable :).

A December quickpoll at the MySQL website showed InnoDB market share at 10
%, BDB 3 %, MyISAM 80 %, ISAM 5 %, of 3000 people who responded.

Mytrix, Inc. is maybe the largest MySQL database site in the world (if
someone has more than 1 TB data, please step forward), and they use InnoDB
tables.

See http://www.innodb.com/userstories.html.

They're in the midst of lawsuits and cannot discuss it.  Thus, you'll
see little if any public comment about it.

InnoDB is in pretty heavy use.  Give it a try and see how it works for
you.

Gemini Tables and NuSphere Update

2002-02-21 Thread Scalper

I am a new MySQL user, so forgive my stupidity for asking the following 
question (perhaps taboo).  What is the latest on NuSphere vs MySQL 
AB?  What about Gemini.  I have searched everywhere for info, but can't 
seem to find anything after November of last year.

I have serious needs for transaction processing, but don't know which way 
to turn.  Should I undertake using NuSphere's (supposedly stable) Gemini 
tables.  There seems to be a lack of info on these tables now.  I am trying 
to get a grasp on what happened to this MYSQL AB vs NuSphere deal, but all 
of the posts about it seem to have vanished.

In addition, my first impression of Gemini was not good as I did some 
simulated crash test and corrupted the tables without much 
trouble.  Perhaps it was unrelated.  But it is worth further investigation.

Or should I look at the InnoDB tables (which are still considered beta).

Any opinions?
