Ruby on Rails

In very simple terms, they both do the same things, but the latter is newer and better and faster, and compatible with newer versions of Ruby (and Rails). I think maybe there may be versions of MySQL that are too new for the mysql gem, too, but that's just a guess. Unless you are using Rails 2 under Ruby 1.8.6, I doubt very much that you will need the mysql gem these days, in favor of mysql2.
