We performed a comparison between MySQL and Oracle Database In-Memory based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two Relational Databases Tools solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."It creates a unified view of the entire architecture and performance factor, helping to manage the network more easily."
"For starters, it's free, which is always nice, and it's also pretty straightforward to use. It's a nice conventional database."
"Support for enterprise-grade features like clustering, master-slave replication, even Sharding (to some extent) which is an advanced feature."
"The installation process for the most scalable solution is remarkably quick, taking only a short amount of time."
"MySQL is an open-source product and has good community support. If you encounter any problem, you can easily ask other members of the community to help. They help you a lot. On top of being free, MySQL is a cross-platform database, meaning it can work on both Windows and Linux. It is very good for us."
"The most valuable feature of MySQL is its reliability and performance."
"Apart from the features that are in the enterprise part, we find the database to be valuable. The connectors and the backup features are valuable as well. We use the basic database. We don't really use the extra features. Our clients like the security features in the database."
"The solution is a small application and is very easy to deploy."
"The solution's ROI is excellent."
"The on-premise version is stable. We have different teams and resources for the server side, for admin, and for development. We can easily take care of all the services and applications."
"It accelerates query processing, which in turn speeds up operations and streamlines workflow, and ultimately enhancing productivity."
"The product offers high scalability."
"I like Oracle because it is a backward-compatible solution."
"The scalability of the solution is very good. It's able to support large amounts of data."
"It efficiently handles low-code data and supports read-and-write operations for clustering."
"The scalability is very good."
"I am looking for the Temporal SQL feature, which basically means that there is complete history for each table. This feature is currently available in MariaDB. PostgreSQL has something called a foreign-data wrapper, which is another way to access external data from inside. MySQL could have a similar feature."
"Sometimes, not because the version is not the latest version, there are some issues with it. Sometimes there's an issue with the server which creates issues with it."
"It should have some code analytical functions. It can also have a monitoring tool."
"MySQL tutorials and guides could be improved. Often they are too complex for someone with no database experience to understand."
"The licensing of the solution is on the expensive side."
"The solution could be more secure."
"There should be more tools to manage the on-premises version and more automation features."
"MySQL lacks a feature akin to Oracle's Real Application Clusters, which ensures continuous database availability within the same data center or nearby data centers."
"They should improve the solution's scalability for large databases."
"The high cost of the product is an area of concern where improvements are required."
"Lacks sufficient integration with other tools."
"The solution is quite expensive."
"They should lower the price. My customers think that it's too expensive."
"The product could be more economical."
"The solution should move to the new way of writing software code with AI that is intelligent and learns."
"It would be good if Oracle could reduce downtime when transferring from non-In-Memory to In-Memory."
