Native encryption ensures secure data management with a simple deployment

The most valuable feature is the on-premises data encryption facilities. By default, we can provide encryption, and this feature in MySQL is why we prefer it over other databases. The native encryption in MySQL encourages us to use this database model more frequently compared to Oracle and other databases. With Oracle, we have to buy another solution for encryption and masking, but MySQL supports native encryption, which enhances our return on investment. It perfectly supports our ROI, and we have no issues with its functionality.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:

Pros

"We use the basic features of MySQL. The interface that allows us to see the parameters of the server is good."

"The feature I found most valuable is activity performance."

"MySQL is easy to use, has fast performance, and it is comfortable for end-user to use. The schema level and structure we are using are very simple and easy to understand. Additionally, packaging tool development is straightforward and the data is presented in a way that is very simple to understand."

"It is a very stable solution. I deployed the product six years ago, and it still works fine."

"The solution is great for small applications in particular."

"The initial setup was pretty straightforward. I would have worked with our IT team in terms of the initial setup."

"MySQL gives us all of the critical features that we need in a database, but without the costs."

"However, it is easy to scale MySQL using the functions provided with the product."

More MySQL pros

"The most valuable feature is compatibility with the Oracle database."

"Tibero uses Hyper-Threading architecture, which is incredibly fast."

"Tibero is very easy to setup and maintain."

"Tibero is a relational database management system, which supports disaster recovery, active cluster, active storage, etc."

Cons

"The technical support should be more knowledgeable and available worldwide."

"The GUI could improve to make MySQL better."

"The solution is expensive."

"Rather than going in-depth about the technical features, which a technical person can directly tell, I would say that MySQL should be able to adapt to the next framework. The 5G framework means an unstructured framework. So if MySQL becomes smoother and more adaptable, it'll be easier."

"We want to continue using MySQL but it merged with Oracle and the scalage changed."

"Oracle should start putting in some of the enterprise features in the standard feature. There are some key features that should be part of the standard."

"The solution could have better integration and security features."

"We face certain integration issues, especially when we integrate the database with security solutions like IBM QRadar, which affects database performance."

More MySQL cons

"In PL/SQL code, there is a scope of improvement. We expect more PL/SQL packages should be included in the next release."

"The knowledge base is quite small and should be expanded."

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Enterprise editions and support are definitely needed for the heavy users who need direct support. "

"The price of the solution is good because we have a good partner."

"We pay a yearly subscription fee."

"We're using the open-source version right now, which is free. I do see some value in some of the more enterprise functions. We're using the open-source version right now, and I was interested in the MySQL Enterprise version really for the tools that they provide, but we decided not to make the purchase."

"Can range from free to quite expensive, depending on the environments and requirements, so better to really set goals ahead of setting it up."

"There is no cost involved, no licensing fees."

"It is an open source platform."

"MySQL Enterprise Support is not cheap, though might still be cheaper than Oracle or SQL Server. They may not have local support depending on where you’re based, but there are many smaller agencies out there that will readily provide support. You’ll need to spend some time looking around."

More MySQL pricing and cost advice

"The overall costs are very low compared to Oracle."

"The price of Tibero is cheaper than that of Oracle."
