Home -> Community -> Mailing Lists -> Oracle-L -> Re: Your opinion please :) keep in the goal
Thanks for your good and bad opinions, but I would like to remember you
please, the idea
to give you the paper is to get ideas what more I can add there,
what do you think should be in the paper (obviously briefly) and you can't
see in there now.
Or if you see some error, or something to improve.
The only one who give one point to add was April Wells (after I ask to give one).
Thank you If you criticize or laud the paper, but don't forget the point (what do you think must be add or improved) I like people who critizes aggresively giving a good reason, because they help to see things you don't see or other people don't want to say, so no problem about this, and thanks for your support words. :)

What I had seen (standard database reality), is people who have to mantain
sql server, oracle server, access, fox pro systems, people who don't have
time neither money to learn Oracle, because 1) this is not his only
responsability (for example I'm more time developing in developer 2000, or
designing than working as dba).
2) There are some topics in Oracle they don't think is important, and they
are; and viceversa. I read all Oracle 7 documentation, and even when I
understand I didn't seen how important they were as I do now. and as we
didn't get critical situations, for example a query which take too much
time, then we didn't dig further in that. Because when one learn more about
tunning is when the process don't work or take too much time.
I didn't saw a real advantage between Oracle and sql server (in fact I saw
sql server was more user friendly), until I got my OCP after 5 years working
with Oracle and developer 2000, I understand a very few topics that make me
understand the advantages in Oracle, I too did a system in sql server (and
knew you must verify in database procedures AFTER EACH LINE!! if there were
an error) ,then I understand what is Oracle and ask my self why other people
still are using sql server, when they had bought Oracle.
