In Response To: Informix vs MySQL (WALTER LOWICH)

Hi,

you can find many reasons for using a specific database system. What are your requirements?

Some important points:

Do you need transactions? Did you compare both systems running with transactions?

Do you need online backups?

Regards,
Andreas
