Storage Engines
handlers for different table types
MySQL can use several different formats for storing data on disk, these
are called storage engines or table types. phpMyAdmin allows a user to
change their storage engine for a particular table through the operations
tab.
Common table types are InnoDB and MyISAM, though many others exist and
may be desirable in some situations.
