Hello net friends:
I have a question that perhaps many of you can answer:
Picture the following situation: a network of about 150 PCs (banyan Vines network, Compaq 3/486, windows 3.1, ...) Most of the PC need access to some common data bases taht will be implemented in Oracle.
The question then is: Oracle for which Operating system / environment / machine?
The choices are basically between installing Oracle under DOS, OS/2,
Vines (is it possible????), or Unix.
I presume that Unix should provide faster response to queries (coming
from the PC's, through OracleCard or similar), but does any of you
have any practical experience and/or numbers to support my guess?
Thank you in advance.
