I am interested in people's opinions on MySQL vs SQL Server. Our database is fairly simple; no stored procedures, and we use NHibernate as our ORM layer. I would like to make a case for switching from SQL Server to MySQL cluster on Linux. We need an enterprise level, clustered DB with failover and load balancing. Any opinions pro or con would be very much appreciated!

What scenario of failover/load balancing are you considering? Are you considering HAProxy?
