Re: Codde's Rules and Oracle
One could argue that Oracle is compliant with rule 11. A distributed Oracle database can be constructed in such a way as to be transparent to end users. With the addition of 'INSTEAD OF' triggers in 8i, one could argue that Oracle is also compliant with rule 7. Just my $.02.

Re: Codde's Rules and Oracle
Certainly, much of the 'under the hood' work needed to make the delivered database simple for end users to manipulate is very complicated. But, Codd merely postulated standards for the 'ideal' relational database, he didn't prescribe the means for achieving those standards, or that the standards be easy to achieve, only that it be simple for end users to obtain the data they need. Anyway, if it were too simple, the work wouldn't be terribly interesting, and DBAs would be little more than glorified system administrators. :) Chuck - Original Message - To: Multiple recipients of list ORACLE-L [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Saturday, January 19, 2002 4:40 PM I admit to being on shaky ground on rule 11. See my comments in another post. You *could* argue that 'instead of' triggers allow compliance with rule 7. Have you tried to implement it? It gets too complicated too fast. This may be a case of being in compliance with the letter of the law while violating its spirit.

Oracle and Red Hat
All, Over the past few days, there have been postings which stated that Oracle had withdrawn certification for Red Hat Linux. The first indicated that Oracle had withdrawn certification for Apps 11i on Red Hat Linux. Subsequent postings further indicated that Red Hat would not be a supported OS platform for upcoming releases of the RDBMS as well. I did find one forum posting on Metalink which indicated that Red Hat had withdrawn from the Oracle certification process, but have found no other references to the above. Does anyone know of any relevant articles, or support/desupport notices regarding this? Any info will be greatly appreciated.
