How to choose your database

[ganjasensation0098]

Hi guys, right now I'm thinking what database I will use in terms of daily transactions. I read already many articles about this but my head is still not clear about this topic. I just want to learn momre on what database is good and when it will be good to use.

Are you asking about which RDBMS (e.g. MySQL, PostgreSQL, SQL Server, Oracle) to use? What are your requirements?

[wilron818]

MYSQL, MSSQL and oracle are the best db. You can choose either of the three...

@wilron: "Best" depends entirely on the requirements. You've left out PostgreSQL.

And included MSSQL ;)

Sorry with that. I forgot to include PostgreSQL... It is also an open source DB

@callumacrae: I already mentioned that DB...

My sql is the best with all languages and daily use

SQL isn't a database, it's a method of accessing databases ;) The database would be something like MySQL / Firebird / PostgreSQL.
