The official Sun-MySQL WebSite

As already reported the deal is done (see Sun Press Release , Kaj – Ambassador to Sun comments ). I’ve had a look at the Official Sun-MySQL website.

  • Overview – Ultimate Scalability for the Web Economy (dolphin & sunset)
  • Features – It Just works (windsurfer with island view)

  • Perspectives – Open, Fast, and Free Just Got Better (snowboarders viewing the mountain scape)
  • Support – Unbeatable Duo – Open Source and Global Support (couple showing the V symbol)
  • Training – Get Trained. Get Ahead. (Cyclists riding into the sunset)
  • Get It – 60,000 downloads a day (surfers on a wave)

Well, they have very colorful images!
