> "First of all, yes, the name is a pun." - Enno Rehling

It's not that uncommon in MySQL-land to name things after people, so I guess it fits right in! MySQL itself was named after Monty's daughter, and MariaDB was named after Monty's other daughter.

Though I must confess that I originally thought EnnoDB meant "Ain't no DB" in a certain accent :p




I did not know that! This is some cool trivia.
