Somehow this went completely below my radar, I guess because this seems to have been fresh news--as far as I can tell--last week (the 15th) when I was out-of-play with my nasty tooth. Also, few other bloggers or DBAs seem to be very interested in it, to judge by comments and by blogs from this week, so between the two of those factors, it escaped me.

Wow. Somehow this went completely below my radar, I guess because this seems to have been fresh news–as far as I can tell–last week (the 15th) when I was out-of-play with my nasty tooth. Also, few other bloggers or DBAs seem to be very interested in it, to judge by comments and by blogs from this week, so between the two of those factors, it escaped me.

Of course, that doesn’t mean it isn’t important, so here are a couple from this week.

Reuven Lerner from OStatic — “Infobright Announces Open-Source Data Warehouse Based on MySQL”.

Database Science has an Infobright Review by Brooks Johnson.

Oh, and Thanks, Roland!
