Hi,
I'd like to precise my questions, because I got more information !

I read in MaxDB documentation that theses schemas didn't exist in MaxDB :
database link, package, rollback segment, snapshot, tablespace.

However, they are quite important for my applications, so I'd like to know
if these is something in MaxDB to replace them, or at least to avoid
needing them.

Thanks,
L�na
