So if IBM failed to acquire Sun, someone had to do the job. Looks like Oracle is going to buy Sun Microsystems for a total of $7.4 billion. The deal has been approved by Sun’s board of directors. With this acquisition, Oracle is set to become a major player in the cloud computing business giving a tough competition to rival IBM.
Everyone is speculating some graphic layoffs, some great new technology products etc. I’m concerned about how Oracle is going to treat MySQL. Since I’m a huge MySQL fan and a lot of my websites run on MySQL, I an curious to know how Oracle is planning to handle it.
