[comp.databases] IS THERE AN ORACLE MAILING LIST ?

munish@ms.uky.edu (Munish Mehra) (12/07/89)

Could someone point me towards an Oracle Mailing List.

We are considering Oracle to build a VERY LARGE database - ie.
millions of records, with huge records. It is to be implemented
on a PRIME 6550.
Any information/data on performance/pitfalls/advantages/disadvantages
of using Oracle (or is there something else out there "the experts"
recommend) would be greatly appreciated.

Hi,

I tired to send you mail, but it has been two weeks so I assume
you did not receive it.  If you could send me some more specific information
on what you are doing (size of DB, Number of tables, Number of columns,
operation mix Insert, select, update etc., size of transactions) etc.

I will send to the a list of Oracle/PRIME specific things you can do
to get performance.  And in the list will be things not to do.
