Last week, at OrangeHRM, we have met David Axmark - the co-founder and Vice President of MySQL.
It was an inspirational and memorable experience to get to know about the growth and present day happenings of the world's most popular open source database software from the lips of one of its creators.

So what happened and what did you talk about?
David was a very inspiring personnel who could reach the minds of the young developers with the loads of experience he has. At the beginning of his speech he stated what was the basis for his wonderful creation, MySQL. But major part of the speech represented the improvement of MySQL, its contribution to the modern software development, cons and pros of MySQL, how we can contribute to its further improvement and etc. Throughout the speech he compared the position of MySQL with other open source database softwares. But he never tried to flatter its superiority. One of the question raised by the audience was "According to your view what is the best database software in the world now". His answer was quiet humble which I never expected. " There's nothing called the best software in the world. All depends on the perception of the developers and the nature of the project undertaken". At the conclusion of his speech he gave a good advice to all of us. " What ever you do,whether it's big or small, give the best shot of your talents."
