In a bid to woo customers from rival Microsoft Corp, Oracle Corp will boost investment in the widely used MySQL open-source database that it acquired with its January purchase of Sun Microsystems.

Already the world’s biggest player in the $19-billion-a-year Dell inspiron 1545 battery database market, Oracle believes that it can boost overall database sales by making MySQL more competitive with Microsoft’s SQL Server.

Edward Screven, Oracle’s chief corporate architect, said in an interview that the company will add new functions to the software and improve its performance.”We are increasing our investment in MySQL… on every front,” he said prior to unveiling Oracle’s strategy Dell latitude d610 battery for MySQL at a software conference in California on Tuesday.

The acquisition of MySQL gave Oracle an entry into other parts of the market, such as selling to small to mid-sized businesses and companies running websites.ITIC analyst Laura DiDio said that MySQL and SQL Server are fundamentally similar to Dell latitude d430 battery , but that the Oracle product is not as robust as the one from Microsoft.

The European Union delayed Oracle’s $7.5 billion purchase of Sun for months over concern that Oracle would slow development of MySQL in a bid to pressure its users to buy Oracle’s high-end inspiron b120 battery product.MySQL is an open-source program that is available at no cost. It generates revenue from subscriptions for upgrades, bug fixes and call center support as well as tools that companies use to manage the software.
