Home -> Community -> Mailing Lists -> Oracle-L -> RE: might be really old topic, but please take a look
briefly:
our choice was oracle/NT, based mainly on division/corporate direction which was based on the strengths of oracle. widely installed, industry leader, robust platform.
NT was a no-brainer; the majority of our knowledge is NT. price and complexity were considered also, even though you have more control over *nix, the price of boxii to run it on as well as the cost of training and associated learning curve made *nix an unattractive option.
our user base is small-to-medium so an NT solution should suffice, if we were larger or more widely dispersed or web based; we'd look harder at *nix.
remember i said brief.
Oh, ha! that is an old one:
Oracle on Unix is the "only" choice.
No need to research at all! Just go out and buy one!
