MySQL
Apart
from C++,
in order to support MORPG, a medium to store
information
associated
to
characters
and
monsters
is
required,
and
hence
the
author
is
decided to
use
MySQL
as
the
database management.
Below
a
brief
description regarding to MySQL [16] can be found:
The MySQL® database has become the world's
most popular open source
database
because
of
its
consistent
fast
performance,
high
reliability
and
ease
of
use.
It's
used
on
every
continent
--
Yes,
even
Antarctica!
--
by
individual
Web
developers as
well
as
many
of
the
world's
largest
and
fastest-growing
organizations
to
save
time
and
money
powering
their
high-volume Web sites, business-critical systems and packaged software -
-
including
industry
leaders
such
as
Yahoo!,
Alcatel-Lucent, Google,
Nokia, YouTube, and Zappos.com.
Not
only
is
MySQL
the
world's
most
popular
open
source
database, it's
also become
the database
of
choice
for
a
new
generation of
applications
built on
the LAMP
stack
(Linux, Apache, MySQL,
PHP
/
Perl / Python.)
MySQL runs on
more than
20 platforms
including
Linux,
Windows,
OS/X,
HP-UX,
AIX,
Netware,
giving
you
the kind of
flexibility that puts
you in control.
Whether
you're
new
to
database
technology
or
an
experienced developer
or
DBA,
MySQL
offers
a
comprehensive range
of
certified
