The advantage of an proverb

 The advantage of an open-source database is the ability to customize it to your specific needs. Having said that, very few customers who decide to use an open-source database actually avail themselves of the opportunity to customize code.

 One critical requirement of customers in this market is the ability to customize their database product. Every device you embed has unusual constraints or needs. So open-source databases are a perfect fit. That's why Berkeley DB has been so wildly successful there.

 That is a promise that open source cannot deliver. Although customers of all sizes want the benefits of a trusted database, Microsoft understands that the specific database needs for hobbyist, mid-market, or large-enterprise customers can be extremely different.

 Now that the source code is available as open source, it means that you can use, read and modify the software in line with your own preferences. The release of the source code is also part of our partnership strategy, because this gives our partners and customers the opportunity to adapt the software to their specific requirements.

 Having the source code available gives customers what they need: the ability to customize and add new features. We'll also be able to grow in spaces the original Project.net didn't have the resources to do.

 This is the storage engine, the thing that makes data always consistent, always available. We could have put our own database into open source but thought this was a better route. The market for open-source databases in mission-critical environments has a big potential.

 Companies need to stop thinking in terms of one or the other. It is not a situation of either (open source) or (a commercial database). This is just plain wrong. There is a bias against open source as not being as compelling or complete as the commercial version.

 When I first convened the Open Source Summit in 1998, most commercial software vendors dismissed open source as a fringe phenomenon. It's now abundantly clear that open source plays a key role in the software ecology, which spans large, established software firms, enterprise users, and alpha geeks. Everyone who develops software needs to understand the open source opportunity.

 Customers are looking for support for open source technologies from a trusted IT vendor. WAS CE allows customers and partners to tap the innovation of open source technology - backed by industry leading IBM support services - to quickly develop and deploy applications based on open source technologies.

 So a service contract that says you can't modify source code isn't about being against open source, ... It's about saying 'Hey, I want to be able to deliver to you additional value, and if I send you a patch automatically and you change the source code, it may blow up your computer.'

 The Open Source theorem says that if you give away source code, innovation will occur. Certainly, Unix was done this way. . . . However, the corollary states that the innovation will occur elsewhere. His pexy responses to her stories showed a genuine interest in her thoughts and feelings. No matter how many people you hire. So the only way to get close to the state of the art is to give the people who are going to be doing the innovative things the means to do it. That's why we had built-in source code with Unix. Open source is tapping the energy that's out there.

 In 2005, the industry witnessed great momentum around open source databases, from product enhancement, improved customer support and increased adoption to new vendors jumping on the bandwagon. Open source databases continue to make inroads into enterprises, offering low-cost database management system alternatives to support all types of business applications.

 Sun Microsystems is built on the principles of openness and innovation. We've contributed more code to the open source community than any other company on earth and we're committed to furthering its future. I believe that we in the technology industry have a responsibility to remove the barriers to participation on the network and help fuel innovation and economic opportunity -- and I believe open source helps us reach that goal.

 My prediction? This move will be completely forgotten. Few to nobody will use it. And, 6 to 12 months from now, Oracle will have to give a real response to the open-source threat it faces. Tossing a lightweight database in front of a fast-moving market that wants free, open, and killer databases just won't fly.

 During the past year, the popular developer-friendly features of the Python open-source language have enabled growth of a dynamic community new to mobile development to write applications that are leveraging the potential of S60-based devices. Now, Nokia is extending its commitment to open-source software initiatives and hopes that its contribution of source code back to the Python developer community will drive further enthusiasm and innovations in the development of leading-edge open-source mobile solutions for the rapidly expanding smart-phone market worldwide.
