I've been thinking on this long and hard, and I can't seem to come up
with an answer on it.
Why is it almost always assumed the MySQL will be the server for nearly
any PHP app?
Why is it MySQL and not PostGRES or SQLite?
At this point the only reason I can think of is that MySQL has a much
more friendly name. But is that really it?
Is there some winning advantage that MySQL has over PostGRES that makes
it the de-facto standard in the PHP world?
Just curious, because I've been playing with PostGRES for about a month
now and it seems to scale MUCH better than MySQL, what with
clustering,transactions and all that jazz.
Thoughts?
