Sun Microsystems "Project Peter" targets Oracle to MySQL migrations to boost sales

So I was right, the deal to buy sun was to kill mysql because mysql gaining a lot of oracle converts. So oracle got wind of it and to had to stop it somehow ... but now the deal hit an EU snag ... sounds like a movie script ... drama drama ... Smilie

see sun's secret "Project Peter", download the pdf file.

Quote:
MySQL was able to derive significant marketing benefit from appearing to challenge Oracle, but we penetrated the markets faster by, in reality, focusing on new, huge opportunities such as Web databases. Key to MySQL's success was its determined focus on markets that Oracle (and others) was ignoring.'

This statement, suggesting that MySQL was not directly competing with Oracle, contradicts the internal presentation, showing that targetting Oracle migrations indeed was a big part of MySQL's sales strategy.

The information is especially important in light of the pending EU decision on acquisition of MySQL through Oracle, which many fear will mean an end of the MySQL product. MySQL employees also feel betrayed by the statements made by their former CEO that placate the competition between Oracle and MySQL.
