One could say lots more but here is the 1 minute summary:

They are 2 different databases but both are owned by Oracle.

        (Rdb used to be owned by Digital.)

Rdb only has a production version for VMS (it does have a "workbench" version for Windows).

        Rdb currently only runs on Alphas but is being ported to VMS / Itanium.

Both are full featured enterprise class databases and both are being actively developed and supported.

See http://www.oracle.com/rdb/ and http://www.oracle.com/ and come back if you have specific question(s).

Regards,
Bruce Reardon
