CouchDB or Mysql?

Hi,

I’m a old dev and i usualy use Mysql for servers.
First thing after installed server it say : You need to install essentialmode for many project mods… Ok.
I read install setup it say : I’m using couchDB… ok i’ve installed it, essentialmode work fine.
Now i’m trying VDKinventory : You need Mysql and you need to create table with this SQL file.
AHHH ?! Not compatible with essential ? hummmm…
Two questions :

  • Why the essential mod use a special DB that any other mods use ? Is it for market it ?
  • Why mods developper always wants us to create database with a SQL file ? Don’t they know they can create tables with a simple CREATE request ?!
    This first try to make a server stopped me : I don’t want to try hard here for simple things with different people who are not agree.
    I’m ungry too because i couldn’t click on “new topic” because i needed to do some stupid quests ! grrrr

MongoDB is faster, great DBMS used in a lot of companies

Hi reevax,

MongoDB looks interesting but do i need to convert all mods using MySQL ? It’s a lot of work !
