Database

Quick MySQL performance boost

Few domains on the server, such as Istvan's ESN-ASK depend on MySQL-database, which has partly Finnish roots due to lead developer Michael Widenius. MySQL's future is a bit unclear for now because it was first bought by Sun Microsystems and later on by Oracle, which is one of the largest software companies in the world and it has its own relational database application. In the worst case Oracle will end the MySQL project and popular internet sites such as Google, Facebook and Wikipedia have to search for alternatives.
