Anyone have any good experience with a
"port" of a database from SQL Server
to MySQL?
This should be fairly painful! I switched versions of MySQL from 4.x to 5.x and various statements wouldn't work anymore as they used to. The query analyzer was "improved" so statements which previously were tuned for performance would not work anymore as expected.
The lesson learned from working with a 500GB MySQL database: It's a subtle topic and anything else but trivial!
