Re: Anyone using "Enterprise implementation"?

I wouldn't recommend using mysql in an 'Enterprise' environment for anything 
that matters to you. 

By what reasons would you make such a comment?  Could you clarify
this statement?

FWIW, I've worked with multiple companies (not small ones) that use MySql
for lots of different apps (not just snort), and they are happy with it.
Obviously, it doesn't have all the features that some commercial databases
include, but when properly configured & tuned, can handle very large databases.

I'd suggest the majority of the negative comments towards MySql on this
list are either sourced by individuals that don't have a clue, or, by 
professional database administrators that know exactly where the weaknesses
are (and how to deal with those in some reasonable/acceptable way).

Given individual investments in training, your milage may vary.
