Hi, Which one do you prefer mysql or oracle for an application to be developed in .net. I would be looking for the ease of development, support and speed. Also if possible, please provide faqs/links as to why you support one of them. I know that sql server will be a good option but we cannot afford it. Thanks, sai. Mr.Sai, You can download MS-SQL express edition. This is free for development from Microsoft. http://msdn2.microsoft.com/hi-in/express/bb410792.aspx (needs some registration - give some invalid info) This handles most of the development requests. Here, the point - which database is "good" is not answered. The "good"ness of a database depends on the type of application we are going to develop in future. We cannot just rely on something which is freely available, or something which has good technical support. A technical architect who has worked with all the databases is right point of contact. Thankyou Mahen
