OT MySQL versions

[Marc Vanzegbroeck]

Hi,

Now I'm using SQLite, but I was looking at the MySQL-site a saw there are different versions.
Does anyone use the 'MySQL Community Edition' edition with FWH? If so, what is the difference between the other versions?
Is there a limitations of tabels, usere of records in the free version. I don't find information of this on there site.


Thanks,

Marc

I use it in 6 projects. some mid size app used by supermarkets.

The only difference is license...
If you produce GNU GPL software, you can use freely, but if you use it in your own developments which do not apply for GNU GPL license, then you have to pay for it.
Basic Standard Server from U$ 2.000 up to U$ 60.000.-

You can try MYSQL replacements (forks if you want) Percona, MariaDB, OurDelta, Drizzle
On all tests, MARIADB wins and is 1000% compatible with Mysql, you can give it a try.
This is more "open" than Mysql. Read its license.

Yes, MariaDB will work with TDolphin.
It will work via ADO also, using the same MySQL ODBC Connector.
