Is there a site equivalent to "caniuse.com" for all the different database features by product and version? If not, someone should build one. Often some DB would say they added feature X but what does that mean? Did they implement this in advance of other DBs or behind others?
- WrtCdEvrydy 6y agoThe issue is there's no database feature spec so you end up with each DB having it's own version of something.
- dragonwriter 6y ago> The issue is there's no database feature spec ISO/IEC 9075 disagrees.
- WrtCdEvrydy 6y agoYeah, that's the query language used in relational databases but find my the spec for "database encryption" or "database clustering"
- setr 6y agoThe SQL spec is barely comprehensive of the SQL dialects found “in the wild”, let alone the entirely independent and much more interesting set of non-table managing/querying features databases provide. It provides at best a baseline for comparison.. and a fairly shallow one at that
- nalgeon 6y agoMarkus Winand is doing something like that at https://modern-sql.com/ https://modern-sql.com/. But it's not nearly as extensive as caniuse.com
- scrollaway 6y agoThat's a really wonderful idea.
- foobar33333 6y agoThere is no standard spec so the same function name doing the same kind of thing will work in different ways or support different features.
