Logicworks, a managed service provider in New York, has made a rather interesting move that other MSPs should note: The company claims it is the first authorized MySQL Platinum Hosting Partner in the U.S.

If you’re an MSP seeking to host applications, MySQL is an great solution to have in your portfolio. Many of the fastest-growing hosted applications — such as SugarCRM — run on MySQL. And the vast majority of Web 2.0 businesses (Yahoo!, Google and YouTube, just to name a few) leverage MySQL in some way.
