Hello, all. I've got a 100+GB data warehouse running on Oracle 8. We are considering migrating to 8i, as some of 8i's new features look intriguing. Internet accessibility is not a key priority; management of lots of data and multiple simultaneous ad-hoc queries is. Does anyone have experience with both, and if so, can he or she tell me the following:
1.) How difficult is the migration for 8 to 8i? 2.) Given the type of system I've described, are 8i's new features worth the upgrade?
Please respond via posting or email.
Thanks,
