Oracle founder/CEO Microsoft Tycoon
Probably Bill Gate is busy with new strategy to penetrate IT market after Sun collapse. For sure Larry Ellison is smiling to us with eyeball has dollar sign. That is the destiny of Java language where it future is unknown. Do you think Oracle will give you free Java language? may be no. A business who run Java application may need to pay for the license, perhaps not per user. So why need to care about it. If Java become license fee, it will affect most IT firm who use Java to sell their product. We are waiting announcement from Oracle on Java and other Sun products. I can say that Larry Ellison will not continue to support Glassfish app server as it was strong rival to Oracle OC4J app server. Same fate goes to MySQL database. very sad.
Its true that Oracle play some roles on development of Java language. Most of Oracle products use Java. But when come to commercial user, Oracle charge you for every aspect. Do you know that Larry Ellison is the richest guy in IT business after Bill Gate. I believe in next five years he will be richest than Gate. Oracle is the best database in the world. I also love to use it.
US government has no choice in this economic recession to let the Oracle own Sun. To protect the open source community, US can use lawsuit not to allow Oracle buy Sun share because Oracle has conflict on Sun products mostly open source and low price technology. Why Sun collapse? I attend the speech from Tibco company yesterday one of the speaker said that Sun don’t know how to sell their products. Its true. We might think that Sun is a welfare company. As a profit, its ok for Sun to charge few millions (e.g. support fees) to their customer for using Java enterprise edition as well as App server and MySQL dbase.
