    HI

    Often i have come accross the question on which one is better amongst Oracle and SQL Server. Does this debate have any definitive answer?How should one make the choice among these 2 ?

    I could think up the below points but none of them zeroes in to 1.

    Stability:Both are quite stable i think and none scores more than the other if implemented properly

    Scalability:Again same as above

    Usage of the application:For example Datawarehousing/OLTP.Any + / -points of these 2

    Ease of development:Surely SQL Server scores here

    Features available: Do not know whether any specific feature is available in one which is not there in another one

    I have read many articles from both MS and Oracle , but have failed to conclude on a correct to the point answer. Is such an answer possible at all?

    Any pointers/suggestions/comments will be really helpful

    No. It's a matter of opinion, hence will differ from person to person.
