Ask HN: Anyone Trying the New MySQL Branch Projects?
Has anyone tried these new MySQL branch projects in their own projects? Things like Drizzle and XtraDB? My concern is that the pace of evolution with MySQL will slow under Oracle, and that 2-3 down the lines, we'll be turning to these offshoot projects for a solid (free) solution.
- madhouse 16y agoI had a brief encounter with Drizzle, didn't convince me, so I went the safest route, and abandoned MySQL altogether and switched to PostgreSQL. It was reasonably painless, thankfully, and so far, it's doing great.
