RE: OT RE: Oracle being scalable

Unfortunately, the one after that was done after the Olympic games had finished, which
made the number of concurrent requests somewhat smaller....

No, the one after it that was flawless in every regard, constantly, forever, and made no mistakes at any time, even in testing and development.

<==> LoL! The "Winter Corporation"? Which databases were included?
<==>
<==> The Olympics one that IBM did on DB2?
<==> The Terraserver database?
<==> The SETI one?
<==> 2500 Transactions per second is the fastest they did? A

<==> i know of is 8400/second.

Interesting. For those of you who haven't read the article, it says that a survey made by the Winter Corporation showed that the top 10 OLTP databases on UNIX in the following categories: "Most Data", "Highest Workload", "Most Rows/Records" were all Oracle databases.

Does anyone know of similar surveys on other platforms? In particular Windows NT / Windows 2000?

And how about on the Sinclair, the Tandy, and the Commoder PET? :)
