MySQL takes cue from the master | CNET News.com

MySQL takes cue from the master | CNET News.com: "A Swedish upstart is challenging Microsoft in the database arena by making use of the same low-end assault tactics that the software giant employed to gain a foothold.
MySQL, which sells an open-source database of the same name, was nearly unheard of in corporate technology circles a few years ago. Now the company's competitively priced, easy-to-use database is becoming increasingly popular with business customers looking for smaller, less-expensive options. "

I'm at the MySQL conference this week. It's a fascinating event, at the intersection of database and open source.
