MySQL Case Study: Nasa
Overview The NASA Acquisition Internet Service is responsible for providing the general public with information regarding contract opportunities with the revered space organization. A network of servers interconnecting 12 of NASA's field installations, NAIS is the only means for obtaining acquisition information for contracts ranging between $25,000 and $500,000. Given NAIS' mission-critical purpose at NASA, quite a few heads turned when they announced the successful conversion of the NASA Acquisition Internet Service database backend from Oracle to MySQL. The NAIS team began searching out a more cost-effective database solution. The obvious choice? Open Source. And within the Open Source arena, the NAIS team settled upon what they considered to be the most robust database product available: MySQL.
