yes its convenient to spawn a server, looks hip. But come on people, its still a technology platform, and we rely on your support to get sh*t done.

Mysql server that has been running for 8 months with no issues, started to fail. Your customer service guy now suggests not enough ram, so it is shutting itself down.
however the data got lost… Which does not add up at all.
We have the backups, but it is a very small application, there is no way the data set is too big. There are no writes on this database to increase its memory.
It is annoying to get copy paste responses to your tickets from your technicians. Are you a consumer product or a professional service?
We obviously understand how mysql and persistence work. it the deamon goes down, data should not be deleted.
