ever wonder why SQLPlus is so damn robost? It can do just about anything... in a messy and time consuming way sometimes, but it is rock solid.
"About 15 years ago, Sqlplus WAS Oracle". Nothing
else. Hard to imagine. An Oracle engine with nothing
inside (just tables and indexes):
no procedures,
no packages, package body, functions
no triggers
no sequences (can you imagine... this came with V6)
no ref constraints
no 2-phase commit
no snapshots, no snapshot logs
no parallel server
...
can you imagine! and it was already the most powerful database server growing at >100% year over year (100% growth for 13 years in a row)
I mean "can you imagine" SQLPLUS "was" ORACLE....can you in your wildest dreams imagine what this group would be like?... just SQLPLUS related issues.... "can you imagine"....;-)
