Why use MySQL for your e-Learning solution
According to a new source-code analysis from Coverity, MySQL has very little bugs according to the software bug standards. There were total of 97 bugs found over hundreds and thousands lines of codes. According to Coverity, normally you find one bug per 1000 lines of source code. For MySQL, there was an average of one bug per 4000 lines of source code, which is four times better than is typical with commercial software. According to Zack Urlocker, vice president of marketing for MySQL, open source developers seems to produce cleaner and better structured codes than commercial software developments. This is simply because the codes will be seen by other programmers.
At free of cost, a stable open source database seems to be the best solution in the e-Learning industry. At Arts ISIT, we use MySQL and PHP for many instructional developments such as the learning tools and mixed-mode course developments. We are happy about the stability of these open source server technologies.
