They're not really supporting directly anymore and relying on experts to figure out technical issues.""Oracle MySQL Cloud Service's scalability is an area of concern that can be better.""The tool’s stability must be improved.""It requires a significant amount of expertise and effort to manage, especially when dealing with substantial volumes of data.""MySQL should have some kind of native query browser.
