Home -> Community -> Mailing Lists -> Oracle-L -> RE: SQLServer vs. Oracle Papers Needed
here's some information i found; any of you helpful gurus, please correct my misconceptions or mistakes as necessary...
one highly regarded training organization is learningtree.com, they offer both sql and oracle training; Oracle corporation also offers training.
i was looking for a tale-of-the-tape on ms-sql vs. oracle, as expected, dependant upon where you look the opinion varies. one interesting site is http://www.tpc.org which is one of those independent, industry standard, benchmarking organization relating to transaction processing. they've got a measurement scale for RDBMS' and their processing performance. the tpm and/or tpmC which is transactions per minute and/or transactions per minute Cost. they have some interesting information that we might want to review and consider in the design of this solution, some of the configurations cost several million dollars or more but the concepts, components, peripherals, and results are of more interest.
for example they list a 10 million dollar compaq, MS-SQL 2K, windows 2000 datacenter, clustered solution, with over 40TB of storage. now i doubt we'd be able to implement that or if we want the high number of transactions per minute produced by this; but it might help us in envisioning a scaled down solution for ourselves as well as getting an idea of what we should look at as metrics for determining if the re-design is done correctly.

I need pointers to papers/studies that compare and contrast SQLServer vs. Oracle. I'm specifically looking for studies which appear impartial and conclude that Oracle is the better choice.
Thanks in advance.
