Databases

SCO OpenServer Release 6.0.0 includes the following database products:

• MySQL, version 4.1.1

  One of the most popular open source database products, used to power high-volume Web sites and other critical business systems. MySQL documentation is installed with the product and is available from the Databases category in the online documentation.

• PostgreSQL, version 7.4.7

  A widely-used open source database system that offers the features and reliability usually associated with costly proprietary database systems. PostgreSQL documentation is installed with the product and is available from the Databases category in the online documentation.

Configuration scripts for MySQL and PostgreSQL have been added to the mkdev(ADM) configuration utility. Before using either of these database products, you must run the appropriate mkdev script:

# mkdev mysql     (for MySQL)
# mkdev pgsql      (for PostgreSQL)
