Despite insisting that Oracle has not responded to its requests for comment and concessions in its planned acquisition of Sun Microsystems (and the open-source database MySQL), Amazon.com recently offered the EC all the proof it needs that MySQL competition remains alive and well.[....]Oracle hasn't even started with MySQL yet, and it already faces significant competition, not to mention the other MySQL forks (e.g., Drizzle).I think the steps of Amazon are a nice proof for the successful forkability of Mysql. Take the stuff, make a business out of it and make money. The more i think about this while situation, the more i think it's just a interest of a single person that blocks a merger that is good for everyone in IT. Nobody can be interested in IBM getting stronger (okay, of course: beside IBM), due to the FUD surrounding the situation of the Sun/Oracle merger. But this is the consequence at the moment. ]]> Fri, 06 Nov 2009 09:00:46 +0100 http://www.c0t0d0s0.org/archives/6074-guid.html http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/2.5/ http://www.c0t0d0s0.org/archives/6074-Mysql-competition-by-Amazon.html http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/C0t0d0s0org-StrangeDays/~3/4e-o0hJLiiI/3572-SunCEC2007-Day-2-General-Session-begins.html English Strange Days http://www.c0t0d0s0.org/archives/3572-SunCEC2007-Day-2-General-Session-begins.html#comments http://www.c0t0d0s0.org/wfwcomment.php?cid=3572 0 http://www.c0t0d0s0.org/rss.php?version=2.0&type=comments&cid=3572 nospam@example.com (Joerg Moellenkamp)
