InnoDB is a popular storage engine for the MySQL database management system. It’s an alternative to the default engine – MyISAM, and it has got a number of upsides which make it the preferred engine for plenty of open-source script-driven web apps, including Magento and Joomla™, which have moved to InnoDB for good. For instance, importing enormous data volumes will be faster with InnoDB, because it locks only one row to execute a specific operation, not the entire table, which makes the engine excellent for scalable applications. It also supports foreign keys and database transactions – these refer to the way in which the info is tackled. Put simply, adding new or editing existent data will either be thoroughly completed, or will be annulled and the procedure will be rolled back in case a certain problem shows up in the meantime, thus the content that remains in the database won’t be lost.

The needed engine will be detected automatically and will be assigned to that database, so you can run scripts that need InnoDB, as well as ones that require the default MySQL engine, MyISAM, without having to cope with any obstacle.
