> Or, we deployed MySQL and then found out that the features we were depending on were InnoDB-only, but switching to InnoDB cratered our performance.
Or worse, we were expecting InnoDB but the default on the mysqld which comes with the RHEL version the client used to deploy our software was MyISAM, so the cascade didn't work when deleting a row, and the dangling reference caused an exception deep in the framework we were using, making parts of our software stop working.
