What is MyISAM?
MyISAM is a storage engine for MySQL. It's known for its speed and efficiency, particularly in read-heavy workloads. However, it lacks support for transactions and row-level locking, which can be a limitation in certain applications requiring high concurrency or data integrity. It's commonly used for web analytics, data warehousing, and content management systems where read performance is crucial and complex transactions are not a primary concern.
