Hey, Threadiverse! I’m looking for informed opinions on database choices.
I can stand up an Internet-facing application and have it use either MySQL or PostgreSQL. Which is the better choice, and why do you think so?
Thanks!

Maria database is free and open source. It uses MySQL format.
Maria is MySQL. More specifically it is a fork with many additional features.
Why are you implying that PostgreSQL isn’t?
Well mySQL certainly is not, I judge this to be a correct statement!
Actually, really good point. Sorry, person-I-responded-to. I thought you (PIRT) were comparing Maria to Postgres, when you (PIRT) were referring to Maria vs MySQL.
Both PostgreSQL and MariaDB are OSS and free; MySQL is covered with cooties and boogers, and you don’t want to get any of it on you.
