Just woke up. Checked my Twitter and boom! two hot news:
- Oracle announced that it has entered into an agreement to acquire BEA Systems, Inc.
- Sun Microsystems announced that it has agreed to acquire MySQL for $1 billion in cash
What a lovely database themed morning. Expect more coverage from the blogosphere today.
Update: But wait, here is a second Oracle acquisition for today: Oracle has agreed to acquire Captovation.
