先总结一下：
-
InnoDB支持『事务』，MyISAM不支持
-
InnoDB支持『聚簇索引』，MyISAM不支持
-
InnoDB支持『数据缓存』，MyISAM不支持数据缓存
-
InnoDB支持『MVCC』（多版本控制锁），MyISAM不支持
-
InnoDB支持『外键』，MyISAM不支持
-
InnoDB从MySQL 5.6版本以后才支持全文索引，MyISAM一直支持
-
InnoDB从MySQL5.7版本以后才支持地理空间索引，MyISAM一直支持
-
InnoDB内部创建哈希索引来实现自适应哈希索引特性，MyISAM没有hash 索引
-
InnoDB支持『表锁 + 行锁』，MyISAM只支持『表锁』
-
InnoDB存储最大限制是64TB，MyISAM存储最大限制是256TB
一共是上述十点，对应的表格对比如下表格所示：
Table 15.1 InnoDB Storage Engine Features
| Feature | Support |
|---|---|
| B-tree indexes（其实这里指的是B+树） | Yes |
| Backup/point-in-time recovery (Implemented in the server, rather than in the storage engine.) | Yes |
| Cluster database support | No |
| Clustered indexes | Yes |
| Compressed data | Yes |
| Data caches | Yes |
| Encrypted data | Yes (Implemented in the server via encryption functions; In MySQL 5.7 and later, data-at-rest encryption is supported.) |
| Foreign key support | Yes |
| Full-text search indexes | Yes (Support for FULLTEXT indexes is available in MySQL 5.6 and later.) |
| Geospatial data type support | Yes |
| Geospatial indexing support | Yes (Support for geospatial indexing is available in MySQL 5.7 and later.) |
| Hash indexes | No (InnoDB utilizes hash indexes internally for its Adaptive Hash Index feature.) |
| Index caches | Yes |
| Locking granularity | Row |
| MVCC | Yes |
| Replication support (Implemented in the server, rather than in the storage engine.) | Yes |
| Storage limits | 64TB |
