The death of MySQL?
Around fifteen months ago, the open source community was very happy to hear that Sun Microsystems had just purchased MySQL, and the worlds most popular database was in very good hands.
Now that Oracle have purchased Sun Microsystems, has MySQL just had its epitaph written? Can we really expect continued innovation from the MySQL team when Oracle clearly makes far more money from their own proprietary database?
Or is MySQL simply destined to be rebadged as the new "Oracle Lite"?
