Yahoo! uses the MySQL database to power many of its web properties. The first was Yahoo! Finance (http://finance.yahoo.com), a popular web site that provides the full spectrum of financial services and information. MySQL is behind Yahoo! Finance's high-traffic area of news headlines, which is aggregated from over 100 sources worldwide, as well as its stock charts, insider trading, SEC filings, conference calls, and earnings reports.

In fact, Jake has become the enabling application for MySQL usage across Yahoo! Properties worldwide.
