Re: some interesting news from the linux arena



postgreSQL versus Oracle ?

I thought someone would say "use the right tool for your job"

I think most of the projects in the world don't need what
Oracle can offer and then why should someone use a huge system
for a (relatively) small application. 

Would you tell someone who is moving from MS world where he used 
Access that the only thing he can use on Unix/Linux is Oracle ?
Or do you think that someone moving from MS SQL cannot live without
all the features of Oracle ?
Maybe he does not even need all the features of PostgrSQL !

All this without looking at the price difference between Postgres
and Oracle.
