Is there any difference between oracle database service and Oracle instance??
I need oracle to start with OS only with bare minimum processes.Database should not be started automatically.
As per my little knowledge,instance refers to memory structures and various processes that must be started FIRST in order to access database.Then,after the instance is started,database can be connected.
Pls help...

On Windows the service is the instance.

As far as I know there is no service on Linux, or maybe you mean something else, if so explain waht you mean.
