Cross-platform MySQL Runs Best On Sun


Did you see the press release today, called “Sun MySQL Server Solution“?

What it means is that we start seeing the fruits of what we’ve been talking about all along since the acquisition, such as when launching MySQL this week in Argentina and in Uruguay:

  • That Sun remains committed to MySQL’s cross-platform presence, doing at least as much as before the acquisition on any individual platform or for any individual stack.
  • That the acquisition of MySQL through Sun means unique opportunities for us to optimise MySQL to run best on Sun.

The unique opportunities to make MySQL run best on Sun is due to the fact that we get additional resources, Sun’s expertise, and the possibility to influence not just MySQL code, but also the surrounding hardware and software.
