IBM廣邀Solaris的客戶投向IBM. Oracle的CEO Larry Ellison自非省油的燈. 在Oracle的Openworld中強力回擊.
Ellision懸賞千萬美金, 如果有企業的資料庫應用程式在Sun上面不能跑, 或如果不能至少以兩倍的速度跑, 將給予一千萬美金, 並歡迎IBM加入競逐賞金.

賞金誘人, 但是最重要的是他的另一句話: "If IBM wants to compete we will compete. We are not selling the hardware business, no part of the software business are we selling." 也就是, 硬體留, Solaris留, Netbeans留, MySQL留, Glassfish留, Java留...全都留.

對於外界對購併Sun不斷的疑慮, Ellison也一次說清: "We are looking forward to competing with IBM in the systems business, and we think the combination of Sun and Oracle is well equipped to compete successfully against the giant. We hope this [removes] some of the uncertainty. We're in it to win it." 看來, 項莊舞劍, 志在沛公.

I talked to Oracle AP product & solution team last Friday. Oracle AP still keep mute about the Sun and Oracle business & product roadmap due to internal policy. Some advices from them :

Running Oracle Database Engine in Nehalem Chipset, in terms of license (0.5 factor) and performance which is better than Sun M-series and T-Series.
Using Oracle VM to reduce # of Oracle DB license cost. Oracle does not reconginze the VMWare/XenServer/SUN xVM/Sun LDOMs Virtualization for Oracle License. Unless you run Oracle VM to get # of cores license in Guest domain to quote the DB license accordingly, the rest of VM solutions, you have to buy the whole # of cores for DB license within server/hardware regardless of # of cores in guest domain for DB engine only.
Oracle Enterprise Linux (unbreakable) with Oracle 11gR2 RAC + Nehalem Servers are the best components to achieve 99.999% uptime.
Today news : Sun cuts 3,000 jobs as Oracle takeover

Those were what Ellison said in the OpenWorld. You can read the notes from the meeting.

Running... money out of your packet?
Using MySQL or PostgreSQL in the coming NoSQL world is a better choice. What's NoSQL? Complicated data processing using complicated SQL statement or database management is NOlonger required to run a world-class system.
Oracle database is the greatest one in the market but not everyone needs it or can afford it. People who use MS-SQL will not be likely to use Oracle though. However, Oracle-MySQL will be a good alternative solution to MS-SQL.
Today, more than thousands of people lost their jobs. What's new?
