“Oracle also picks up the MySQL database, which is available free under an open-source licensing arrangement, and could help Oracle check sales of Microsoft’s SQL Server database to smaller companies.”
I am really hoping they dont Kill MySQL by trying to over integrate it with OracleDB. If they really just make a few common management tools and use it as their mid to low tier DB they may be onto something.
Oracle already offers a free version of Oracle db. MySQL will be the tease for Oracle.
