I have been unable to convince myself that an UV Brings any kind of value for the below in an OLTP Environment. 1. Advanced Level Software Development. 2. Performance 3. Scalability etc Nested tables (Big Feature for UV) is not something new, most relational databases accommodate this feature at a much higher level. IF BIG THREE Databases (DB2/ORACLE/MSSQL) was poor on ROI... Why would 75% of the worlds Corporations depend on such databases? Can you Name One BIG Fortune 100 that totally relies on UV? I have heard stories where several corporations migrated to RDBMS, Never heard any LARGE Corp(Hershey, GE, BOfA etc) switch to UV/MVDBMS. Never seen any Enterprise Software (SAP, PeopleSoft etc) mention UV on their Web Sites.... Never seen a book on UV OR PICK at Barnes & Nobles. Perhaps you can explain where UV plays an Important Role.
