For what I've read, globally the 2 databases are equal in performance, reliability and functionnalities. Larryh E as many times said that it's only competition in the database market is DB2.
I guess it really depends on your environment. Of course Oracle works on more OS (used to be anyway), but which big organisation only have one DB ? All big companies I've worked have many DB. I would be interested by any non-partial comparison between Oracle and DB2. --- "Vergara, Michael (TEM)" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> a écrit : > Hi Everyone! > > Well, there's been a lot of Oracle vs. Microsoft > traffic on the > list, but now my Manglement wants a similar > comparison to IBM's > DB2. > > Does anyone know of web sites or locations where > there are > documented objective comparisons between Oracle and > DB2?
