Yes I had used ORACLE 6 on IRIX in the early days SCO Unix and IRIX – man I feel old ☺

I’m pretty sure at one point Oracle did run in IRIX. If my memory is not completely gone, I remember working with Oracle 8 on SGI machines running IRIX back in the mid to late 90s.

Definitely not the best platform for Oracle. Just getting the compilers to use the right versions of the libraries for linking was a pain the ass.

That's a somewhat x86 view of the world. Mongodb on HPUX ( or any big endian arch) ? Oracle on IRIX? My SQL on iOS? All likely possible (in the case of IRIX until 2013). None, so far as I know, done this century and certainly not supported. On 8 Mar 2016 17:40, "angelo" <angelolistas_at_gmail.com<mailto:angelolistas_at_gmail.com>> wrote: Why not for Linux ?

I think they´re following the standard of all other databases on the market.. any version for any OS.

it will be interesting, lol..
