I believe that the answer to Stephane's question is obvious:
Oracle 10g will cost 10 grands/ CPU. That's where the letter "g"
is coming from.

We've been very excited about Oracle Standard Edition. Helped stave off
the interest in MS SQL. Given the budget pressures at many organizations,
I'm surprised we don't hear more about this alternative.

Hi all,
We're an Oracle shop, over 140 Oracle instances.
Today, architecture has chosen IBM DB2 for BI projects.
The next step I guessed will be to choose DB2 for the new transactionnal
applications also.
IBM offers DB2 at 25% less than Oracle.
I wonder if Oracle 10G will come with a new pricing structure ?
