The DBA Enterprise team at my company actually did a review of
DB2 and Oracle. This was back in the days of Oracle 8. Some of
the features that Oracle came out behind in are now there in
8i but they got quite similar results in performance and all
that fun stuff. But that was running some extra
i have a 1TB Oracle DB running on Win2K.
That customer previously used MS SQL server , until the DB grew up to some
350GB and then . the company i used to work for earned some good bucks
on MS SQL server to Oracle conversion and i got some moderate MS SQL server
knowledge.
Nice toy.
Serious
List,
SQL Server is not even a threat to Oracle in the database market share.
Oracle mains competitor is DB2.
MS SQL Server is still mickey mouse and cannot offer the robustness,
scalabilty, reliability and performance of Oracle.
And yes, lots of people will become unemployed and many companies
If this is true, then there will be a massive unemployment in the whole world.

After having witnessed the RAPID DOWNFALL OF SYBASE (and losing big bucks
on its stock) I'm thinking lots can happen faster than comapanies' ability
to react. With InnoDB MySQL gets row level locking and decent performance
for free. Linux is free and has taken server sales away from Microsoft.
ve heard is DB2. (and not the crap thing that was DB26000 a
while ago unless I'm mistaken).
