   Hi,   
      
   almost 10 years ago there was a web article "why not mysql" with an   
   opinion about why to choose a closed source DBMS like oracle over mysql.   
   Do any readers of this ng have an opinion about the situation today?   
   Would anyone consider mysql or mariadb for a business critical purpose?   
   Which attributes would make a difference to you (quality, support,   
   featureset, availability of skill, ...)?   
   Any experience you would share or point me to?   
      
   thanks   
   Joachim
