A data warehouse holds a lot of information that doesn't change all that
often. In contrast, an on-line-transactional database is expected to
have frequent simultaneous changes. Many databases are combinations of
the two. Either can be hosted on Oracle or other vendors' products.
Yes, they administer differently.
