Yeah, I've already sold most of my Oracle stock. :-)

The lastest versions of MySQL have been performing quite nicely and their plans to improve transactions are progressing apace. The fact that they are studying Cary's book says something too.

DBA's wake up!

The last statements in the article are really telling:

                Yet, despite MySQL's progress in the market, "we haven't
found very much MySQL out there," says Microsoft's Rizzo.
                "That's the best news I could have," retorts Mickos,
MYSql AB. "As long as Microsoft is in denial, we're fine."

Could we add Uncle Larry to the list of those in denial??
