This was actually one of the reason's I left my last employer.
The decision was made to go to MSSQL and I was given the same specs
as with Oracle, ie: no lost transactions no matter what.
I hired a friend who is a MSSQL/NT/2000 expert to train me.
No mirrored redo/transaction logs.
Hardware RAID does not help when a LUSER like me does a del *
There were other issues that made me uncomfortable but robustness
was the primary one.
SQLServer is an excellent workgroup product, it is not suitable
for enterprise/realtime/CAD-CAM systems.
IMHO
