Overview:
MySQL enables organizations to eliminate the "database tax" associated with proprietary closed source software and reduce the Total Cost of Ownership (TCO) enabling them to more readily accommodate growing demands for database capacity. Companies can:

• Cost-effectively scale-out their infrastructure to accommodate exponential growth of users, traffic, and data.
  
• Reduce Hardware Costs by incrementally adding less expensive commodity hardware
  
• Reduce Software Costs using open source, commodity software
  
• Improve Performance using a pluggable storage engine architecture
  
• Improve Scalability by distributing large workloads to a farm of servers
