MySQL - new Falcon storage engine
MySQL AB, the company that releases the open-source MySQL database has announced a new storage engine called Falcon.
In MySQL, storage engines determine the features of the underlying tables. For non-transaction tables (readers and writers not protected from each other) MySQL has MyISAM, and for transactional tables, Bdb and InnoDB. Now the new Falcon type is poised to take the lead as the best choice for high-transaction websites.
