Wasn't one of the weaknesses of mysql that you can't do a rollback of a
transaction ? once you change a record, there's no way to go back.

other db's such as a oracle, require a commit statement before data is
actually changed. as long as you don't do a commit, it's only in your sql
session that you see the changes in the database.

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.
