System i pros David Bauer and John deCoville posted comments to my new blog, Maxed Out, in response to the MySQL running on System i news. Here are a couple snips:

"We are currently using WebSphere and just beginning to use PHP — we have it and MySQL installed on a V5R2 box and a V5R3 box, and yes, both PHP and MySQL will run under V5R2. So far, PHP is a lot easier to use, and this should make it even easier, and it doesn't require a box with a lot of memory and CPW."

"We use mostly MS SQL 2000 with some SQL 2005. IBM's DB2 is also important but not as a direct link to the web (we have two iSeries computers). This is for major divisions of the county's online web services.... We are studying other possibilities now that we are moving to V5R4...."
