RE: Oracle Cold Fusion $1 million dollars
Though Ellison had made this offer, he retracted it several months later. Rumor was Ellison pulled the offer when he learned that a group had been put together at Microsoft to win the prize and were told that if they won the money they could keep it. It was a publicity stunt and nothing more. It is also a stupid argument. It is like arguing that the top speed of a Porsche Carrera 4 Turbo is 176 and the Corvette is 165 so the Porsche must be better. The fact that you can buy two Corvettes for one Porsche doesn't enter into the equation as to which is best. Moreover if your task is to haul 30 people one-way to school, than neither vehicle is right for the job, you need a bus. Cheers! - Steve PS.

Sybase can be twice as fast as Oracle. Which is perhaps why he challenged Microsoft instead. Sybase doesn't need any middleware, and it runs great with CF.

I haven't seen the SuSE version, but I have seen Red Hat optimised for Oracle. http://www.redhat.com/products/software/linux/eeoracle/ -- Gavin Lilley Internet / Intranet Developer Halesowen College Tel: 0121 550 1451 Ext: 330 -Original Message- From: Donovan Rittenbach [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: 06 October 2000 16:11 To: CF-Talk Subject: RE: Oracle Cold Fusion $1 million dollars First of all, thanks for all the great advice on oracle and cold fusion integration.

> Can anybody comment on MySQL speeds compared to SQL Server and Oracle? You can't really compare this products. MySql is very fast but at a cost of functionality and flexiblity. It has not stored Procedure or SubQuery support.

First of all, thanks for all the great advice on oracle and cold fusion integration. Secondly, Oracle is THE database company.
