I wouldn't call it a shift. Yahoo! uses Oracle quite extensively. However, Mysql is also used a lot and in many critical and data heavy operations. Decision on what to use is probably based, as elsewhere, on various factors e.g. scalability, administration, etc. I am not knowledgeable enough on our database side to give exact figures/reasons though. :) - Sandip _______________________________________________ ilugd mailinglist -- [email protected] http://frodo.hserus.net/mailman/listinfo/ilugd Archives at: http://news.gmane.org/gmane.user-groups.linux.delhi http://www.mail-archive.com/[email protected]/
