"Wonderful RDB"

What do you like best? That they pried MySQL out of Oracle's ugly clutches. What do you dislike? That MySQL still exists and people still use it despite knowing that it's owned by a horrible organization that will betray them. What problems are you solving with the product? What benefits have you realized? I've used MySQL based solutions for almost my entire career. This is a reliable product.
