Interesting that he didn't test RI, which AFAIK doesn't work with MyISAM. But of course he didn't mention the real issue (transaction/ACID), so what do you expect...

As far as I can tell, the whole transaction/ACID business was never important to anybody but MySQL's marketing department, so why should they be concerned now?

The other alternative is that MySQL is able to develop another transactional storage engine quickly. -- Alvaro Herrera Developer, http://www.PostgreSQL.org "Coge la flor que hoy nace alegre, ufana. ¿Quién sabe si nacera otra mañana?"

What about Berkeley DB by Sleepycat?

I think everybody knows that this is out of the question. Developing a new transactional storage engine from scratch in the required timeframe is unrealistic. If they really lose InnoDB, the only alternative I see is to approach SleepyCat and hope, Oracle isn't already talking to them. However, last time I looked BDB did not have foreign key support or MVCC. You remember those T-shirts with "Foreign keys - check"? What are we going to see now ... "Foreign keys - you still don't really need them"?

The MySQL 5.0 2PC/XA features also require InnoDB. As does point in time recovery, savepoints, row-level locks, transactions and foreign keys. Chris Jim C.
