A news which is not a surprise to me. Oracle has made its intentions very clear. Oracle has been trying to provide a end to end solution both from a software and hardware perspective. I am sure that this news will be accepted by many as a good news. Oracle and Solaris has a good bonding from the very beginning , now they are one. The addition of Sun technologies to Oracle's arsenal will have a profound impact on Information Technology Industry.
Oracle software is widely used on Solaris platform.So Oracle has clear business interests on Solaris. Oracle is a major stakeholder and a prominent player in Java space. For Java lovers it will be a pleasant news.
Its not so long that Sun acquired MYSQL. It will be a bad news for MYSQL lovers. We'll have to wait and see what future holds for MYSQL.
Its hard to predict the impact now, but for sure there will be an impact.

Very true. It is indeed a pleasant news. Lets hope that Oracle will continue to invest more into java. This move is surely going to increase the competition between Weblogic and Websphere platforms. Oracle is now better positioned to take on IBM. I hope they dont kill MySQL and Glassfish. It will be really interesting to see how oracle handles MySQL as there are over 11 million deployments of MySQL.
Interesting thought! There may be either some serious shake in the current delivery mechanisms connecting web and data technologies or it may just be a waive that will be subtled!!
