GlassFish & MySQL Software Bundle
Developers were expected to be able to download GlassFish V2 with the MySQL Community Server 5.0 (5.0.51a) and MySQL JDBC driver 5.1.6 in a software bundle beginning today. This open source bundle will be made available for all the major software platforms including Solaris, Linux, Windows and Mac OS X.
Other benefits Sun says users can reap from these leading open source technologies:
- GlassFish supports the latest Web “event driven” technologies such as Ajax and Comet that make for rich customer Web experiences;
- Users can freely develop applications on the open source bits and later, when they need support then decide to purchase a subscription to the products from Sun that offer training, support and product updates;
- MySQL is the leading open source database that is very fast, highly scalable and designed for multi user enterprise applications.
