Actually AC, yes it is. Relational DataBase Management System From: http://www.mysql.com/information/index.html MySQL is a relational database management system. A relational database stores data in separate tables rather than putting all the data in one big storeroom. This adds speed and flexibility. The tables are linked by defined relations making it possible to combine data from several tables on request. The SQL part of MySQL stands for "Structured Query Language" - the most common standardized language used to access databases. Now, to the topic at hand: Is mySQL a far cry from stable oracle releases (read: not 11i)?, yes it is.
