I need decide which database going to run for Redhat Linux. I know MySQL is the most popular one in Linux world. I need you help me to fill out the blank and hole (?) in table below.

                        Databases for Linux (Redhat)

Y -- yes; N -- No; NA -- not apply; ? -- don't know/not sure

Database Trigger/Store Procedure Transaction Foreign Key Constrain

JDBC/RowSet           C/C++ Library  PerlDBI
MySQL      N           N                          N
N                               Y (mm.sql tyep 4)
Y?                   Y
Postgres      Y?          ?                           Y
?                                  ?
?                    ?

Informix
Sybase
Oracle
DB2
Else?

I know Oracle, Sybase, Informix and DB2 support most or all of them in UNIX (Solaris, HP-UX, AIX, etc.) But I am not sure are they also support in Linux.
Thank you very much if you can fill out the blanks and/or holes for me. Received on Thu Nov 23 2000 - 07:47:39 CST
