Difference between InnoDB and MyISAM in MySQL



  • InnoDB has row-level locking, MyISAM can only do full table-level locking.
  • InnoDB has better crash recovery.
  • MyISAM has FULLTEXT search indexes, InnoDB did not until MySQL 5.6.
  • InnoDB implements transactions, foreign keys and relationship constraints, MyISAM does not.
