During last class, the professor mentioned the usage of databases. I was very interested in it; therefore, I tried to search some websites online to gain some articles about databases.
There is an interesting one which states that PolyServe planed to release software to help companies consolidate their growing legions of SQL Servers. I think it is a very good idea, because this decision will make PolyServe’s software much stronger than before. More people and companies will welcome this decision because they would benefit directly from it.
For instance, Linux was a very professional operating system for some IT companies. Since Linux opened core code, IT enthusiasts started to work on Linux. Now, we are able to use Linux on regular or family computers as well. This contribution totally comes from the open core code.
However, there are some problems still existing. People and companies surely do not need to pay any charge for their software, but they need to be careful with their free software. Because it is free, they will lose a lot of service such as tech support. Once their databases have problems, they might have huge expenses.
Still, this article still is useful for some small companies and IT fans. They do need this kind of free software to offer them a new way to manage and discover.
