Christopher, I would start using 9i as my development plan.
It has lot of bells and whistles like all other versions of Oracle many of them
may not work right from the get go. But it has some very good features which
can be used from day one like resumable SQL statements, Flashback query, support
for SCN based, Trial recoveries, RAC to name a few. As you mentioned it would save you from a
huge workload in future when you have to upgrading it to 9i. I don’t see any reason as why not
to use 9i Good luck Thx Gautam -----Original Message----- I am starting a new company, I am going to be
building a platform which will use Oracle database as it's
infrastructure. It will be a very large application and environment If
all goes well. It will take about a year from start to finish till I will
attempt to be live. I am debating about using 9i or sticking with
8.1.7. Since it will be in development, I am comfortable within a year 9i
should just be about stable, and would be nice to already be on it's features,
specially it's OPS features. And not have to worry about the big move
over (and probably costly) in the future. During development it would be
easy to have 8.1.7 and 9i side by side just in case something crops ups and
hinders our path. Anyone have anything bad to say about that
idea? Let them rip, and be honest. "Do not criticize someone until you walked a mile
in their shoes, that way when you criticize them, you are a mile a way and have
their shoes." Christopher R. Spence
