Well, any computer file has potential for corruption. And there's lots and lots of settings for tuning. If you're using phpMyAdmin or similar, there's likely a "Settings"page.
My primary MariaDB system still under maintenance does a daily mysqldump to SQL, compressed, and shipped off to a warm standby system, where it's reconstituted, so the data is rebuilt nightly on the standby systems. The main system is dumped and rebuilt monthly or so.
Wow. Impressive. Makes me think about my setup, but as I said, there's been no signs of trouble, so I'm not wanting to do anything to a "not broken" system.
Makes me think now of the H2Office water billing software I wrote back in 2007. Never heard from that customer since 2008 upgrade. (That's the problem with code that's rock solid--you don't get more business from that customer!! lol)
So I'm wondering how their performance is? I'm sure it's rock solid yet. Anything was better than the piece of shit DBF system they had prior to my completely new software. That's not a slam on DBFs; we all know they're great if engineering correctly in your design. However, this old shitty app gave a big clue when I saw this line in code: ON ERROR *
YES, I'M NOT KIDDING!!! LOL!!!!!!!
