MySQL AB to Exhibit its Open Source Database at Oracle OpenWorld

CUPERTINO, CALIF. -- November 7, 2007 -- MySQL AB, developer of the world's most popular open source database, will be exhibiting at next week’s Oracle OpenWorld event, November 12-15 in San Francisco; Moscone South Hall, kiosk booth PSP 32.

In the past year, the Independent Oracle Users Group has produced surveys of its membership that show that MySQL is an increasingly popular complementary database within Oracle customers' IT departments.
