Re: Oracle/UNIX vs. Oracle/NT

Paul,

Here's a place to start. The first link on this page is John Kirch's famous
Unix vs. NT arcticle.

http://people.freebsd.org/~andreas/unix-vs-nt/

By the by, has management made a business case for moving it to NT?

If you have access to Gartner, they may have something helpful.

Most IS types still don't consider NT/Win2k an acceptable substitute for unix, shouldn't be too hard to find some good info.

Hello everyone,

I'm certain that this is a FAQ, but I thought I would make a request here.

I have a client whose management is requesting us to make a business case for keeping our Oracle on UNIX rather than on NT.

I wonder if anyone can link to or provide any of the following on this subject:

• whitepapers
• platform selection papers
• pro/con summaries to management, no matter how informal

Please help in any way you can, thanks in advance,

Paul
