There is no L in Sun’s LAMP
,----[ Quote ]
| I believe Sun has an absolute right to compete with Linux, but its misuse of
| LAMP does it a disservice and can only serve to antagonize would-be customers
| who do very much care that their middleware stack runs on Linux. If Sun wants
| to market Glassfish Portfolio as an integrated LAMP stack it needs to come
| with Linux services (even if it is just for paying customers, as is the case
| with MySQL support).
|
| Without Linux, it’s not LAMP.

Sun offers integrated Web platform
,----[ Quote ]
| The platform, called Sun GlassFish Portfolio, features open source
| technologies that have been productized and pre-integrated. Besides the
| application server, Sun GlassFish Portfolio also is built on open source
| projects like the Apache Tomcat servlet container, the Ruby and PHP
| languages, and the Liferay Portal. The components have been tested and offer
| increased productivity and faster time to market, Sun said. Mission-critical
| environments and departmental applications can use the platform, the company
| said. All components of the suite except Sun Enterprise Manager are offered
| via open source.

| The Linux used in the system is one that Kealia created for itself

| hooks in it to boost the responsiveness of the system. Over the long
| haul, you can bet that Sun will port the Streaming System software

Closing MySQL: Marten Mickos Responds
,----[ Quote ]
| Whatever you think of Mickos's reasoning behind the move, explained below,
| the company deserves full marks for responding so quickly to a situation that
| it admits was caused by its own slightly maladroit handling of an
| announcement, which in retrospect was bound to be controversial.

| than previously.
