With millions of active installs the MySQL database is the world's most popular open source database for the Web.- Fast, Reliable, Flexible The MySQL database is the world's most popular open source database for the Web. It’s fast, reliable, and easy to use. MySQL runs on a broad range of platforms, giving developers the kind of flexibility and control that Oracle has always striven to provide its customers.
- Oracle’s Commitment Oracle will continue to develop and enhance MySQL along with Oracle’s other open source database technologies, Oracle Berkeley DB, the leading open source embedded database, and Oracle InnoDB, the most popular transactional storage engine for MySQL.
MySQL customers will benefit from Oracle’s world-class support and training services. MySQL developers and partners will find new opportunities as MySQL becomes a certified part of Oracle’s open, complete, and integrated stack of technology—from application to disk.

- Small, light, and easy to administer
- Integrated with a wide range of IT platforms
- Familiar to many developers
- Now enjoys world-class support
- Will be enhanced by Oracle working in concert with the MySQL community
- Can be deployed side by side with Oracle Database in an enterprise, serving different applications and business functions
With a well established community of users, MySQL offers its developers and partners, alike, new revenue opportunities as it becomes a certified part of Oracle’s open, complete, and integrated stack of technology – from application to disk.
