It was taken over by Sun Microsystems in February 2008. [first] It provided products and services in the field of database systems. It was particularly known for the MYSQL database management system. The system is now offered by the Oracle Corporation as free software (under the GPL) and under a commercial license. As usual, the GPL version contains no guarantee or support, while the commercial version is equipped with comprehensive guarantee. The database engine MySQL was created in 1994 by the Finn Michael “Monty” Widenius as a further development of a self-developed Isam engine for his own use for the Swedish management consultancy TCX, which he founded together with his Swedish fellow students David Axmark and Alan Larsson after their studies at the Helsinki Technical University . At the urging of Axmark, who had met Richard Stallman at the end of the 1980s and was very impressed by the ideas and concepts, MYSQL was developed as a Foss solution right from the start. MYSQL is the most popular open source database management system in the world with more than 6 million installations and over 35,000 downloads per day. The MYSQL company (Aktiebolag) was founded by the three founders in order to be able to better counter the requirements of the market with the help of risk capital. Widenius and Axmark then switched off from the TCX to the MySQL. From the beginning, the two intended to make money with this project. The concept “Dual License” is very aggressively represented by MySQL and is considered a model for other open source projects such as Berkeley DB. The developers from MySQL were led like normal employees. The MYSQL product is therefore not a work of volunteers, but by employees. The employees were scattered all over the world and communicate by email, IRC and telephone and sometimes also personally at corporate meetings or conferences. [2] In this sense, MySQL AB was a virtual company, but it also maintained several locations worldwide (e.g. Uppsala in Sweden, Cupertino in the USA or Munich in Germany), on which the employees – as usual in other companies – are employed. Since March 2007, however, the MySQL Quality Contribution Program has existed [3] that actively promotes the care of external corrections and features. In May 2003, MySQL took over the database activities of SAP. The database SAP DB was renamed MaxDB and was offered as the second product from MySQL from. MaxDB is SAP\/R3 certified. The cooperation with SAP ended in October 2007 [4] , The database from release 7.7 renamed SAP MaxDB. In October 2003, MySQL announced the takeover of the Alzato company [5] , a branch of the Swedish telecommunications group Ericsson founded in 2000. With it, MySQL took over the developer team and the rights to their product NDB cluster, the MySQL from the following in the MySQL server as a MySQL cluster [6] had integrated. On October 7, 2005, the Oracle company announced the purchase of Innobase Oy, the company that developed the MySQL Storage-Engine Innodb. In a press release to take over Innobase, Oracle said that the contracts between Innobase Oy and MySQL had to expire in 2006 and would have to be negotiated, which caused uncertainty for many users. The purchase was justified with an increased commitment in the open source area. In April 2006, MySQL announced in a press declaration [7] that Innobase Oy and MySQL have agreed on a multi -year extension of the existing contracts. In the same notification, MySQL also announced the development of its own transactional storage engine with the code name “Falcon”. This is developed under the leadership of Jim Starkey, whose company Netfrastructure was taken over by MySQL in February 2006. [8] Starkey is in the database scene, etc. by developing the Interbase database and participation in the open source database project Firebird. However, Falcon is not based on the code base of Firebird. On January 16, 2008, MySQL announced that it approved a SUN Microsystem company. The offer has been one billion US dollars. The takeover was completed in February 2008. [9] \u2191  Oracle and Sun Microsystems – Strategic Acquisitions – Oracle. In: www.sun.com.
