MySQL Certification reinforces LiveTime’s commitment to open standards and vendor neutrality.

Newport Beach, CA – February 5, 2009 - LiveTime Software, a leading provider of ITIL based Web 2.0 Service Management and Help Desk Software, today announced that it has achieved MySQL Enterprise Certification against MySQL 5.0 and 5.1. This assures customers that they are deploying a production-ready, enterprise-grade solution when using Sun Microsystems’ MySQL database.
Growing customer demand for MySQL solutions, specifically, the number of migrations to MySQL from other RDMS vendors currently using LiveTime has meant a strengthening of relationship between the two companies. LiveTime recently became a Gold Partner in Sun’s MySQL Enterprise Connection Alliance (MECA) partner program, and continues to work closely with Sun to provide first line support for installations based around MySQL Enterprise.
Certification tests were performed on Sun X4100 M2 and Sun T2000 servers running Solaris 10 update 4, MySQL Enterprise 5.0.45 and 5.1.30 using both InnoDB and MyISAM storage engines, Java 6 u10, Tomcat 6.0.18 and LiveTime 5.5. Approximately 900 functional test cases were executed and passed in their entirety, representing all functional aspects of LiveTime Service Manager functioning to specifications.
