MySQL is a free, open source database, available for download at http://dev.mysql.com/ (more information can also be found at http://www.mysql.com) - also at this address, the JDBC driver for MySQL, Connector/J, can be downloaded. The Generally Available (GA) release is usually what is desired - it is best to use this instead of the Beta versions. As of this writing (5/23/05), the latest GA version of the database is 4.1.12 and is available for Windows, Mac OSX, Unix (Solaris), most flavors of Linux, and HP-UX, to name a few. The latest GA Connector/J in the 3.1 family is 3.1.8a14, available in a .zip and a .tar.gz. For information on how to create a database in MySQL or create the tables, you will need to refer to the documentation that came with the version of MySQL you have decided to use. There are links to MySQL documentation as well on the above site.
