Not sure how much use to you it would be, but my employers, Dexterus Ltd,
trust my judgement enough to have adopted my recommendation to use MySQL
as an "embedded" DBMS in our smallscale PC-based systems. It has been
deployed in a "farm" of PC's running Linux to co-ordinate virus scanning
of email, and we are using it in a number of internal systems for fault
logging, change request management and project accounting.
Dexterus (www.dexterus.com) is a VC-funded company set up to provide
application services to the banking industry in the City of London. While
we are still in the pre-launch stages (we launch Tuesday!), we are aiming
for a 99.999% SLA service agreement, so our systems *have* to be
reliable. Now, if I can just figure out a mirroring/failover setup for
MySQL, I could shut the Oracle types up for good - OPS is really rather
*too* heavyweight for what we need! :-)
