Oracle to Purchase Sun
April 22nd, 2009
I was concerned to learn that Oracle will be purchasing Sun Microsystems, especially since Sun owns MySQL, a direct competitor of Oracle’s database software. MySQL is very popular, and I’m not sure what would happen if Oracle should decide to discontinue it.

Update: The acquisition has been approved Sun’s stockholders, so now the purchase is waiting on regulatory approval.
