You missed the point. The idea is management and investor confidence, buy-in. Here's how it works in most companies: MySQL goes down = something seriously bad

Here's how it works in most companies: MySQL goes down = something seriously bad happened. MariaDB went down = that database that Ted suggested sure is a piece of shit.
- kbenson 13y agoWell that depends on how Ted presented it, doesn't it? If he says "Let's try this other database instead of MySQL" may turn out different than if he says "Let's try this other version of MySQL put out by MariaDB". In the end it comes down to having data to support your position though. If MariaDB goes down, and you can't answer whether it would have happened the same in MySQL, then maybe you shouldn't be making database suggestions. If it wouldn't have happened to MySQL, well then people were right to be wary, weren't they?
