Thanks!
I figure they'll have to do quite a lot to make progress in their chosen
market, including:
- SQL*Net protocol compatibility
- Oracle Number datatype support
- ROWID unique row identifier
- Oracle Redo/Undo log format parsing and replay
- SQL Loader format support
- Oracle exp/imp format support
The broader Oracle enterprise market is used to a high level of integration
of Oracle instances across the enterprise, and their DBAs are highly trained
to use these features.
