  • Ask HN: Postgres vs. MySQL in 2023?
    2 projects | news.ycombinator.com | 29 Sep 2023
    MariaDB [1] is a community developed fork of MySQL, so you can feel free to use that in place of MySQL.

    Another alternative would be Percona [2] which is a drop-in replacement for Oracle MySQL.

    About PostgreSQL I haven't had that much of personal experience with it, but for sure I plan to learn it, because it has been battle-tested for years with lots of well-known projects, such as Django framework, for instance.

    My recollection is that it was created when Oracle took over MySQL in order to continue to have a community-driven GPLv2 "mysql compatible" server; I was expecting them to be more different than they are, but for comparison one is a "clean" GPLv2" and the other has more words and a link to oracle.com: https://github.com/mysql/mysql-server/blob/mysql-8.0.31/LICE... https://github.com/MariaDB/server/blob/mariadb-10.11.1/COPYI...

  • We built an open-source SQL DB for Intel SGX enclaves
    3 projects | /r/cybersecurity | 7 Aug 2021
    Hi everyone! Our team just released EdgelessDB, an open-source database built on MariaDB that runs completely inside Intel SGX enclaves. As storage engine, it uses RocksDB with a custom encryption engine. The engine uses AES-GCM and is optimized for RocksDB’s specific SST file layout and the enclave environment. It has some nice properties like global confidentiality and verifiability and it considers strong attackers like malicious admins or rootkits. It also delivers rather low overheads (<10% for the TPC-C benchmark on Azure). In short: all data is only ever decrypted inside the enclave. This is different from other databases, where data and corresponding keys are processed in the clear in memory. We believe this is useful because (1) it’s very secure and (2) it enables some interesting use cases, like secure data pooling between parties. If you’re interested in trying it out: here’s a quickstart guide. In essence, you can run the Docker image with a single command on any recent Intel Xeon with SGX. Code and more info can be found on GitHub. Would be great to get your feedback on this :-)
