MySQL 5.4 makes debut but won't ship soon
Is it coincidental that Oracle announced its planned purchase of Sun (and its MySQL) at the start of the open source database’s annual conference this week?
Probably not. Yet as many speculate about the proprietary database giant’s plans for its new open source asset, a new version of mySQL made its debut this week.
MySQL 5.4, which made its debut at the MySQL Conference & Expo in Santa Clara, Calif. on Tuesday, will offer significant performance and scalability enhancements, Sun said.
Still, availability is not imminent. Sun said a release date for 5.4 will be announced later this year.
