Re: question

Hello,

Yes, MySQL has built-in replication that allows for this. See
http://www.mysql.com/doc/en/Replication.html for more information.

RE: Question

I worked for Microsoft supporting SharePoint in my previous job. The
only database supported for SharePoint is MS SQL Server, period. These
two products are joined at the hip and it is not possible to use any
other database for this product. Sorry!

Hi.

=20

I want to find out if MySQL can be used in place of MS SQL?

But I want to find out if I can get SharePoint working on MySQL with out
any limitations.

I was given the task to see if there is any other DB that we can run
share point on.=20

I don't want to try for months and then find out that it can't be done.

So if you guys can just give me a answer on this, it will be great.

Thanks for your help and keep the good work going..

Regards

Chris

RE: Question

One thing this article mentions is accessing the SharePoint database
through SQL queries from other (non-SharePoint applications). Directly
accessing the database will promptly result in a non-supported scenario
by Microsoft.

How much control do you have over how SharePoint interacts with the=20
database. I ask because MySQL can appear very nearly like an MS SQL
server=20
but never exactly. If you obscure your data link through an abstraction

layer (like ODBC) your odds of compatibility increase. Based on what I=20
read here:
http://www.codeproject.com/cs/database/Sharepoint_Database.a sp

It seems as though SharePoint has been designed specifically towards the

features of the MS SQL server (or MSDE). So long as it doesn't require
any=20
functionality not provided by MySQL (like table variables or any other
MS=20
SQL-specific features) your chances of success improve again. However, I

suspect that SharePoint is compiled with the OLE DB for SQL Server as
it's=20
only form of database connectivity so the ability to actually repoint it

to a MySQL server may not exist.
