Well, this is the web. Shouldn't people be using something "Web Scale" like MongoDB? :P.

Was actually commenting on the fact that the title of the blog post sums it up, the assumption that PHP and MySQL are/should be linked at the hip is wrong, it has always seemed the case though VB programmers go for MS SQL the way that Delphi programmers used to flock to Interbase.

If the only reason you are using MySQL is because you use PHP...there is your first mistake.

I'm not going to start a flame war over MySQL though I did find the comment that Postgesql was a 'close competitor' a little patronising

Saw this and wondered what the 'professionals' had to say on the matter...

I agree with most of them but very few of them relate to PHP and only PHP. Similar mistakes are possible in other languages.

Bit of a misleading title.
