The Database Usage dialog allows you to
indicate the storage engines that you expect to use when
creating MySQL tables. The option you choose determines
whether the InnoDB storage engine is
available and what percentage of the server resources are
available to InnoDB.
Multifunctional Database: This
option enables both the InnoDB and
MyISAM storage engines, and divides
resources evenly between the two. This option is
recommended for users who use both table handlers on a
regular basis.
Transactional Database Only:
This option enables both the InnoDB and
MyISAM storage engines but dedicates
most server resources to the InnoDB
storage engine. This option is recommended for users who
use InnoDB almost exclusively and make
only minimal use of MyISAM.
Non-Transactional Database
Only: This option disables the
InnoDB storage engine completely, and
dedicates all server resources to the
MyISAM storage engine. This option is
recommended for users who do not use
InnoDB.
