MySQL provides three transaction-safe tables including Berkeley_DB, GEMINI
and InnoDB Tables, I have some queries on them:
1. What are the differences between these three type of transaction-safe
table types?
2. Which type should be used for the E-Commerce web site?
3. Is true that BDB is free while the other two are not free?
4. In MySQL, we can use transaction as the following:
BEGIN;
SELECT @A:=SUM(salary) FROM table1 WHERE type=1;
UPDATE table2 SET summmary=@A WHERE type=1;
COMMIT; (or ROLLBACK)
but how to apply it in the E-Commerce web site with PHP programming?
Thank you very much!
