BDB vs INNODB

[stasJohn]

Are there any big differences between using BDB and INNODB table types? I know they both support transactions and BDB is generally slower than INNODB. I'm talking more about the implementation rather than performance.

For instance, I developed this application which at the time I was writing it was for INNODB tables. Should the same app work fine using the BDB table type.

thanks!

It should be.

The difference is Innodb supports foreign keys and referential integrity concepts.
I doubt BDB supports that.

Hmm, then my app won't work then. I make extensive use of foreign keys and integrity rules.

Thanks for the info!
