Battle of the Open Source Databases
Battle of the Open Source Databases
03/20/2003 01:05 PM2003 promises to be a big year for open source products. Linux is
poised to keep capturing market share in the server and desktop
markets, and Apache undoubtably will remain champion of the Web server
sector. Will this year be good to open source databases as well?
Why I prefer Open Source databases
Why I prefer Open Source databases
09/16/2002 07:41 AM- By JT Smith - I've been working with databases for many years. I
started out with Oracle and Informix then used a little Sybase. Then I
discovered open source and used mSQL, MySQL, and PostgreSQL pretty
extensively. Most recently I've been working with Oracle again, and
just started playing with MSSQL. Why is any of this important? It’s
important because I've seen the good and the bad of all these systems.
And perhaps even more important are ...

08/06/2004 06:25 AMA prediction that both IBM DB2 and Oracle databases would head toward
open source in some way by the end of the year got a little more
interesting as Big Blue announced a partnership with the Apache
Software Foundation to release its Cloudscape Java-based database to
the community, which is turning the database into an open source
project called Derby.

growth and use of open source and Linux software, according to
analysts and vendors.

08/03/2004 10:28 AMwashingtonpost.com - Plenty of tech experts have spent years trying to
convince the general public that the Linux operating system is
becoming more of a threat to Microsoft's Windows. With the LinuxWorld
conference underway this week in San Francisco, there is finally a
sure-fire sign that this may be the case: Microsoft won't be there.

the Mideast
01/17/2004 10:45 PMRIYADH, Saudi Arabia -- Computers and the Internet are just starting
to penetrate the Mideast, and since most residents of most countries
here are dirt-poor, Linux and open source are "naturals" for the
region. There is also a fast-growing market for Arabic-language
commercial software (or software services based on open source
applications), and it seems that half of the region's governments have
decided their country should become "the" developer of Arabic-language
software. Saudi Arabia, where I'm writing this, is pouring massive
government funds into an effort to build a software industry. But it's
possible that cultural and political factors may be more important
than government aid in encouraging software development. If this is
so, Saudi Arabia may be wasting its money, and should look at changing
its society instead. Note: This is #5 in a series of five "Dispatches
from Saudi Arabia." You may want to see #1, #2, #3, and #4 before you

02/05/2005 09:48 PMAs if the largest software company in the world as an opponent was not
enough, the Linux and open source software industry is facing some of
its biggest challenges in containing the proliferation of its own
licenses and updating a 15-year-old GPL. Both hurdles were roundly
discussed during sessions at the recent OSDL Enterprise Linux Summit,
but there appeared to be no easy answers nor easy solutions to either
licensing issue.

12/19/2004 03:41 PMAs I’ve said many times before, Open Source is quite a big
business. Well, it looks as if Open Source is also pretty darn big in
in the retail arena as well. Having their foothold in a store that
sells software that sells anything but Microsoft products is certainly
a different approach to be sure….

future holds for the computer hardware and software industries or even
just for Linux and open source, I'm going to make some predictions
about how tech news will be covered in the next year. Let's start by
saying a minimum of 5000 articles (give or take 4900) will be written
in 2004 declaring Linux "finally ready for the desktop," up from 3000
(give or take 2900) similar articles in 2003.
