Press Release Body: SUNNYVALE, Calif., April 14, 2008 - Solix Technologies, Inc., a
leading provider of enterprise data management and database archiving solutions used
by large enterprise customers to manage business critical data, today announced it

Sun's MySQL Enterprise Connection Alliance (MECA) is a multi-tiered partner program
with compelling benefits for technology companies. The MECA program offers members
the opportunity to preview the MySQL roadmap, while giving special access and
discounts for MySQL software subscriptions and support, as well as assistance in
assuring their commercial solutions work well with MySQL Enterprise and other MySQL
database tools.

Sun\'s MySQL technology is used by some of the world\'s largest and fastest-growing
organizations to save time and money powering their high-volume Web sites,
business-critical systems and commercial software. Enterprise data management is a
proven strategy to manage growth in application and custom databases by reallocating
data out of production systems into secondary, lower cost storage systems while
maintaining seamless data access through the native application or BI layer.

Nicolas Pujol, Sr. Manager, MySQL WW Alliances & Channels of Sun Microsystems, said,
"We are pleased to have Solix join Sun\'s MECA partner program. Solix gives our
customers additional choice in managing their database assets for the best business
case -- either building MySQL databases for custom applications or migrating data
from enterprise applications into a more affordable MySQL data store."

At the core of Solix EDMS is the Solix Enterprise Metadata Manager, which manages
multiple application and data types across virtually all hardware platforms that
enable centralized management of data security policies whether the data resides in
the production instance or in test and development copies. Solix EDMS modules that
will be available for MySQL include:

Solix Enterprise Data Archiving - archives all data (application, email, documents
and other files) to a secure, controlled, and searchable archive laying a foundation
to support eDiscovery.

Solix Secure Test and Development - allows organizations to automatically create
database copies while masking sensitive data in non-production environments for
improved security, faster test and development cycles, and reduced storage costs.

"Solix EDMS for MySQL gives MySQL users an enterprise-class data archiving solution
to maintain performance and reduce the burden of large databases on IT
organizations," said Sai Gundavelli, Founder and CEO of Solix Technologies. "Our
technology will help MySQL customers further reduce costs while enhancing system
maintenance of enterprise applications and databases."
