Oracle buys Sun! Dtrace probes for Oracle?

Monday Apr 20, 2009

As a Sun engineer who specializes on Oracle performance, I am pretty excited for the future. Sun and Oracle have been working together closely for years, but this will allow for even closer integration and innovation.

Could you imagine... "Dtrace probes for Oracle?" How cool would that be?

Time will tell innovations will come out of this acquisition, but I for one am pretty excited... Certainly, much more so than last week Heck, I now get to work with my old buddy Kevin Closson, the Exadata performance guru. Should be a fun ride ahead.
