Re: Limit of Oracle databases on Linux

I just ask this because with MS-SQL Server you can actually run 200 databases per server. It does not instance a process for each database.

I did not think about yet if this is a real advantage or not... but for my kind of business, it will be perfect to offer a non-expensive Oracle solution to my clients.

Anyway, thanks again.
