Being more of a SQL 2000 DBA (I am experienced from SQL Server 6.5). At my installation I have 5 SQL-2000 database machines and recently acquired three Oracle 9i machines.
The limit is essentially a function of your storage area and the amount of real memory available to the processor or processor array. I'm trying to draw similarities between the RDBM concepts now as I learn Oracle's idea of a database. Maybe now is a good time for me to ask these question since it is related to this thread's subject, can you say that an Oracle instance is essentially the same as a MSSQL database? I ask this because a MSSQL server can support multiple databases which can be configured different ways. v/r Stephen S.
