Sabre use MySQL and Linux

Sabre Holdings Air Shopping Products Leverage MySQL Database "Sabre Holdings has migrated its Air Shopping products from a mainframe platform to a combination of HP NonStop servers and a cluster of 45 HP rx5670 servers with MySQL running on the 64-bit Intel Itanium 2 processor with the Linux operating system.

The total amount of data held in the clustered MySQL databases is approximately 75 gigabytes.
