Hi,

Sometimes I see that some tables from my database get corrupted. Why does this happpen and how can I avoid it? It is not hard to go and use "repair table" but it seems that in this way some records could be deleted and this is not ok. If I want to have a very secure database, can I use MySQL? I hope the answer won't be that I need to make backups regularily.


This speaks nothing to the security or reliability of MySQL (or any other crucial/sensitive information), but why wouldn't you want to make regular backups? You could have the most reliable piece of software out there, but that won't help you when a hard drive fails.
