MySQL has several `storage engines`_ (previously called table types). You can
change the default storage engine in the server configuration.
The default engine is MyISAM_ [#]_. The main drawback of MyISAM is that it
doesn't currently support transactions or foreign keys. On the plus side, it's
currently the only engine that supports full-text indexing and searching.
The default engine is MyISAM_ [#]_. The main drawbacks of MyISAM are that it
doesn't currently support transactions or enforce foreign keys constraints. On
the plus side, it's currently the only engine that supports full-text indexing
and searching.
The InnoDB_ engine is fully transactional and supports foreign key references
and is probably the best choice at this point in time.
