    Sun - Oracle

    A few days ago, Oracle, a company which is known by it’s RDBMS, Oracle Database, bought Sun Microsystems ($7.4 billion.. wheewwww), a company which is known by it’s famous programming language, Java. As we know, Sun had bought MySQL, the famous open source database. Hmm… can you imagine how big Oracle now?

    I just wonder what will happen tomorrow. Oracle has the enterprice market, meanwhile MySQL has SOHO market. Now Oracle has them all. I think Microsoft will be jealous. Microsoft SQL Server will not rule the Database World. Absolutely.

    There are so many opinions about the future after Oracle bought Sun. May be Oracle will stop MySQL development, or still developing but not provide it as open source anymore. Or it will be better, MySQL will have Oracle features. What about Java? Do we have to pay to use Java like Microsoft does? Some people think it will be disaster. But I hope that Oracle won’t let open source community down.
