Discussion
When you've had a chance to read these articles, anything from the Background that seems helpful to you, or anything else you may have come across, please write a short (3- to 5-page) paper discussing the question:
Why open-source software will (or will not) soon dominate the field of database management tools.
Your paper should be between three and five pages. Take a definite stand on the issues, and develop your supporting argument carefully. Using material from the background information and any other sources you can find to support specific points in your argument is highly recommended; try to avoid making assertions for which you can find no support other than your own opinion.
The response should include a reference list. Double-space, using Times New Roman 12 pnt font, one-inch margins, and APA style of writing and citations.
