Oracle 9i RAC to support Red Hat clustering (ZDNet)
[Posted June 12, 2002 by corbet]
ZDNet is carrying
a
Gartner Group pronouncement on the availability of Oracle9i for Linux.
"
However, Oracle has not proven the need for a parallel DBMS on
Linux, nor has it validated its claims for scalability with references and
benchmarks. Thus, Oracle and Red Hat will likely concede substantial
discounts as they seek to validate claims that Linux has a compelling total
cost of ownership compared with Microsoft's SQL Server, DB2 Universal
Database or Oracle on Unix."
