OK. Let's suppose the following situation:

We have our commercial product which uses
as database-store SAP DB (and now MaxDB) engine.
We sell it to our customer, but using Application Service Provider model,
which means we don't distribute SAP DB to our customers, we only
distribute our client's part of sofware or give them acces to
our Web Application. Database is still installed
on our side. Moreover, let's suppose for a moment that the client
software does not use any client interfaces like ODBC, JDBC etc - it
receives data only from middle-tier components which are also
installed on our server.
In this situation - do we have to buy a license from MySQL??
Please, put some light on this use-case.

Kind regards,
Marcin Pytel
