Hi All:

Recently, Oracle has made some bold claims as to the capabilities of the new
MySQL 5x...that MySQL now has NoSQL features. 

To add more coals to the fire between SQL and NoSQL camps, I decided to post
this following article from Cassandra, one of the leading reduced mapset
developers...and they say:

"...it's tough to tell whether Oracle got this so wrong deliberately to sow
confusion in the market, or because they really think that's what NoSQL is
about. ". They are politely saying, "Either Oracle is lying or just plain
stupid."

It is a good over-sight.

Jim
