I’ve seen in a few places on the internet that the future for MySQL is bleak. Mainly people talking poorly about it. Is MySQL really “dying”? If this is the case.. what are good alternatives to database solutions? I work for a small company and we use a lot of MySQL. Is postgre a good solution? What’s something that would be useful to learn how to use in the event I go to a larger company? What is the standard corporate database(please don’t say oracle)?
MySQL is very well established and shows no signs of going anywhere. People are always predicting this or that will die off, but it’s all just a bunch of noise. Still, I would learn multiple databases as you will be a more well rounded developer. Knowing Oracle is very valuable on the job market.
