Do you really think its as high as 80%? I would have given Oracle a little more credit than that. At least I end up working at sites that are more Oracle centric to meet their database needs.

(crazy idea) This is smart! Oracle would love this because they get to dump BMC Analytics, replace it with an OBIEE "solution" and get more of a leg up in the BI market. They're struggling in 4th place... and are trying to make it up with acquisitions. Not to mention the fact that Microsoft has been pounding on them for years in the database market. When I was with BMC in 2003, 51% of Remedy customers were still on Oracle. Of those, the top O/S was Solaris. Now, I would guess that 80% of Remedy customers use SQL Server as the back-end. _______________________________________________________________________________ UNSUBSCRIBE or access ARSlist Archives at www.arslist.org "Where the Answers Are, and have been for 20 years"
