Обсуждение: Migration
Hello, I heard from a bunch of PHP guys that Postgres is total crap. Can anyone recommend a guide for migrating to MySQL? Thanks!

Someone's been reading that Rasmus interview. OK, I don't have a complete guide, but I think the steps go something like this: 1: Turn off critical thought processes and stop thinking for yourself. 2: Denormalize all your data ahead of time. 3: Stop looking at tweakers.net benchmarks. 4: Install MySQL 3.23.xx. After all, you won't need any fancy features. MyISAM for ALL! 5: Run your server on RAID0 on IDE drives with untested memory and CPU 6: Backup by copying the files out from under the live running MySQL server. 7: Don't test your restores. 8: Buy all your hardware based on the numbers on the packaging. Pay no attention to those people who actually test hardware. They've obviously been bought off. 9: Say goodbye to data coherency...

Daniel, Is anybody paying you to steel the time of all the developers who will rush and answer you ? Unless their troll-alarm will go off, which is quite unusual for this species (the developer) in front of such challenge... Cheers, Csaba.

I think I've already proven (see Scott and Bernhard's replies) that their troll alarms work just fine. Please realize that anyone who took time to reply to this was already checking their E-Mail and being unproductive. Had I not posted this message I may have saved someone say -- 30 seconds. -Daniel On 9/15/06, Csaba Nagy <nagy@ecircle-ag.com> wrote: > Daniel, > > Is anybody paying you to steel the time of all the developers who will > rush and answer you ?
