Question

I'm new in this domain and like to write an application managing genealogical data. My main concern is how to store and retreive these data from MySQL. I know that DB like Oracle are optimised for recursive queries, but maybe I can find an alternative solution to use MySQL which I undestand is not supporting "CONNECT" . PS. I know that there are thousands of existing Open source solutions, but consider that these data will be a limited part of the functionality, and I need to keep control of the full code.

I had a quick look on the web and found some interesting approach, for instance Interval-based algo which is perfect for queries but not satisfactory for update / deletion.

I'm going to have a look on Prefix-based(Dewey) approach, but one may know an efficient and proven approach to share ?

thanks
