Hi,
I am part of a development team for a company called Advanced Technical
Support (www.ats-ats.com). We are thinking of installing oracle DBMS for
managing our database. Our company is about 150 people and the user of the
database application will be around 5 people. We are thinking of buying
Oracle 8 Server running on top of an NT box. So can anybody suggest what
kind of hardware is suitable for this kind of system? Is Oracle 8 Standard
Edition good enough or we should go for Oracle 8 Enterprise Edition? For
this size of system, is SQL Server good enough to be used or it is
necessary to go for Oracle?
So far the configuration of the machine that we are looking at is:
Dell PowerEdge 2300 - 550 Mhz/512 KB Cache
RAM 512 MB
HDD 9 GB
NT Server 0 10 Clients
Tape 12/24GB DDS-3 Internal Tape Backup
Another quesion, how hard is it to install Oracle? Should we buy oracle from DELL so that it is pre-installed? Or should we buy oracle from Oracle store?
Any comments will be appreciated. Thanks.
