I'm reading the Directory Service Integration and Deployment Guide
right now. I think we want to move from 3000+ tnsnames files to
centralized naming and integrating with Active Directory seems
plausibly sensible (suggestion as to why to avoid it whilst still
running on Windows welcomed). I come across this table comparing
directory services and relational databases.
Directories - read more frequently than written Relational Databases - written more frequently than read.
My experience of RDBMS systems is just the opposite. So do folk agree with the generalisation abve, or do you consider databases to be a read-mostly environment?
