Oh, RDB....<heavy sigh> Oracle Corp was smart enough to strip out all the goodies from it except for the SQLMOD feature. Head and tails above the Pro*Crap. Complete language independence, all your callable SQL in one (or more) modules, etc.

Who knows? We won't put *any* Oracle DBs on Winders after more than one corruption on 7.4.3. Yes, things have changed, but if it looks like a duck and sounds like a duck...

yes, but as you all know by now ( or should know ), having the best technology does not make you a market leader.

MySQL will walk all over PostgreSQL, regardless of the superiority of the latter.

Otherwise, we would all be using RDB, wouldn't we?

Let's not forget PostgreSQL, arguably more "enterprise-ready" than MySQL, and now with clustering on Linux:
