    Oracle is a SQL complaint database. SQL is a database standard. Were you inquiring about MySQL v. Oracle or Microsoft's SQL Server?

    Q...

    Same with what Qi said.

    From a hosting company owner, if you are currently in classes for DBM at a college, if they offer a oracle class, TAKE IT!

    Oracle is a demanded database system by more extensive users. This market is currently growing fairly quick. So, take it or leave it, if you can offer it and advertise it for your own company or just learning about it, go full ahead in my opinion.

    It varies, both have been used heavily in ODS for a long time but historically MS SQL was not seen as great for EDW due to scalability issues. That said, over recent years with the improvements in SSIS and a few other elements MS SQL is starting to make headway into the EDW space for corporate clients.

    I would guess that Oracle has a higher market share in the corporate world but MS SQL is catching up. In the SME space outside of the web then MS SQL is more common because its bundling with the Small Business Server etc.

    I live in a city where software development is a huge industry and I've noticed more and more ads looking for MSSQL DBA's and architects. Another thing to consider is that MSSQL certs are cheaper than Oracle certs and if youre handy with programming, MSSQL2k8 integrates easily into the .NET 4 framework.

    I guess it lots depends up to extensive use and purpose of your requirement...! large companies persist on using Oracle for managing bulky Db's and for managing a mid-size companies they go with SQL. Oracle has fair market and big reputation due to its versatile use

    Hi
    oracle is the best database for large organization and can store more date with a great security having great big featureless but MS SQL server is better for small business requirements.

    MySql is ideal for Website and Oracle/SQL Server is for Desktop Applications
