Does it matter? Github is a closed source service. If they run Microsoft SQL Server vs. MySQL it doesn't matter or change anything for its users. All that us as customers and users care about is the experience and performance. Whatever they want to do internally to achieve that doesn't matter at all IMHO.
- prepend 5y agoIt matters because it makes their product worse. I’m a customer so I’m impacted by using a crappier database that has higher costs and worse performance.
- stillblue 5y agoSQL Server is crappier? How?
- baq 5y agoSQL Server is at least as good as any variant of MySQL and that’s only if you want to be very generous for MySQL. If you meant that and I misunderstood, the other issue is that you don’t migrate to a different RDBMS. You rewrite half of the app and then spend a couple years fixing issues.
