Database Solutions
Each of the database solutions below are freely available for easy installation and use on your Virtual Server.

Database	Description
mSQL	mSQL is a lightweight database engine created to allow fast support and access of stored data without requiring large amounts of memory. This database engine provides a powerful capability for accessing databases within the Virtual Server environment.
MySQL	MySQL provides users with a powerful multi-user, multi-threaded SQL database solution that is fast, robust, and easy to use.
PostgreSQL	PostgreSQL is a powerful relational database management system that is similar to Ingres. PostgreSQL retains the powerful data model and rich data types of POSTGRES, it replaces the PostQuel query language with an extended subset of SQL.

mSQL

mSQL, or Mini SQL, is a lightweight database engine created to allow fast support and access of stored data without requiring large amounts of memory. This database engine provides a powerful capability for accessing databases within the Virtual Server environment.

The mSQL package includes the powerful database engine, a terminal "monitor" program, a database admin program, a schema viewer, and a C language API. The API and the database engine have both been designed to work in a client/server environment over a TCP/IP network. This makes mSQL an ideal database for operating within your Virtual Server.

There is currently no cost for use of mSQL. It is provided to our Virtual Server Administrators free of charge (no installation fee or monthly fees). We have obtained a fully site-licensed version of the mSQL database version 2.0 for our Virtual Servers. Therefore, you need not purchase an individual license to use mSQL on our Virtual Servers.

MySQL
MySQL MySQL is a relational database management system (rdbms) that provides users with a powerful multi-user, multi-threaded SQL (Structured Query Language) database solution. It is fast, robust, and easy to use. MySQL is provided free of charge on all our Virtual Servers.

NOTE: Currently MySQL is available for beta testing only. It should not be used for any critical applications at this time. mSQL and PostgreSQL database solutions are also available.

PostgreSQL

PostgreSQL is a powerful relational database management system (rdbms) that is similar to Ingres. PostgreSQL is an enhancement of the original POSTGRES database management system, a next-generation DBMS research prototype. While PostgreSQL retains the powerful data model and rich data types of POSTGRES, it replaces the PostQuel query language with an extended subset of SQL.

PostgreSQL is currently provided free of charge to our Virtual Server Administrators. While this is being provided free of charge, we recommend that you take the time to register at the PostgreSQL Web site.
