HP Announces Support For MySQL, JBoss

Posted by simoniker on from the i'm-not-the-boss-of-you dept.

Chroniton writes "According to InternetNews.com: 'HP stepped up its commitment to open source software Monday by pledging to offer and support the MySQL database server and JBoss application server software in its servers' - it's also mentioned: 'The deal is truly symbiotic. While MySQL and JBoss get backing from a technology driver such as HP, HP gets the added credibility of being cozy with open source, a label many enterprises and HP rivals, such as IBM and Dell, are working toward.'"

    I think it indicates how conservative they (Dell) are...

    Hmm I tried posting some IP info but it didn't show up - maybe slashdot has a filter or something? Anyway, here is the information minus the actual IP:

    % grep IP access_log | wc -l
    869
    % grep IP access_log | grep robot | wc -l
    0

    This was one of the sites that was crawled, apparently there are at least a couple different HP addresses doing this. I'm not screaming DoS, but I am ranting that they should be paying attention to robots.txt.
