The billion dollar acquisition makes it the largest open source software deal ever and makes Sun the owner of a critical part of the popular LAMP (Linux Apache MySQL Perl/Python/PHP) open source software stack!
This announcement reaffirms Sun’s position as the leading provider of platforms for the Web economy and its role as the largest commercial open source contributor (even Solaris OS is available free and open source). This opens up MySQL to a whole new and exciting arena and is expected to gain new distribution through Sun’s channels including its OEM relationships with Intel, IBM and Dell.
