[Phpwm] PHP Vs .net

[Andy Cowan]

MySQL is perfectly stable as long as you use established versions that other people have had the pain of pioneering for you.

We have MySQL servers that have been running Radius Servers for 5 years with no downtime at all, and DNS servers for ISP authoritiative use (4 years uptime). If you know what you're doing, you won't have a problem. If you like t upgrade the day something new comes out, you might.

And would you use a Windows Server in production before the first service pack came out?

No, thought not.

Down time on things like wikipedia and osm have manly been due to 
problems with MySQL so YES I am quite happy to say that MySQL is 
unstable. So for 24/7 operation I would certainly be looking to remove 
that as an element of the equation.
