| MySQL
is the world's most popular Open Source Database, designed
for speed, power and precision in mission critical, heavy
load use.
The MySQL database server embodies an ingenious software architecture
that maximises speed and customisability. Extensive reuse
of pieces of code within the software and an ambition to produce
minimalistic but functionally rich features have resulted
in a database management system unmatched in speed, compactness,
stability and ease of deployment. The unique separation of
the core server from the table handler makes it possible to
run MySQL under strict transaction control or with ultrafast
transactionless disk access, whichever is most appropriate
for the situation.
Today
MySQL is the most popular open source database server in the
world with more than 4 million installations powering websites,
datawarehouses, business applications, logging systems and
more. Customers such as Yahoo! Finance, MP3.com, Motorola,
NASA, Silicon Graphics, and Texas Instruments use the MySQL
server in mission-critical applications.

ODBC connectivity.
ODBC is a standardized API, developed according to the specifications
of the SQL Access Group, that allows one to connect to SQL
databases. It defines a set of function calls, error codes
and data types that can be used to develop database independent
applications.
ODBC is usually used when database Independence or simultaneous
access to different data sources is required.
The OpenDB CD will install a MySQL user, startup scripts
