Diff between oracle 8i,9iand10g

hi everybody,
can anyone please help to know the differences between the above specified versions in oracle.
Regards,
rk

can anyone please help to know the
differences between the above specified versions in
oracle.1) 8i is obsolete, no longer available, no longer supported, and does not officially work on any platform supported by Microsoft or current Linux distro or most current Unix vendor;
2) 9i is about to be obsolete, the first release is already no longer available, the second release is expected to be removed from the public download area in a short time (perhaps with 6 months to a year);
3) 10g is the current version, is supported and will be supported for a while to come, and is available on most current operating systems in 32 and 64 bit variants.
Oh, yes ... there are a bunch of feature improvements. Oracle is usually very careful about being backward compatible, so there is nothing in 8i that does not work (and usually works better) in 9i and 10g. As others have said, read the New Features document for each version to get an idea about the feature changes.

    Check http://www.oracle.com/database/product_editions.html
    This is about 10g but mostly should be the same as in 9i with at least two exceptions known for me RAC is not possible for 9i SE and 9i had not XE at all.

    difference between oracle 8i and oracle 9i No difference. These are both:
    1. very old
    2. coming form the "i" post-fix era
    3. in dire need for an upgrade to 11g (although we are also still on 9i and keep postponing upgrades, sigh :-( )

    Hi,
    As of today you should install SOA Suite 11g
    Fr this you will need to install Database (for development you can use XE)
    Run RCU utility to crete DB schemas for SOA Suite.
    Install Weblogic server
    Install SOA Suite as an option to Weblogic
    Create SOA Domain.
    It is physically possible to do it in 2GB but is far better on 3 - 4GB
    You can consider installing DB on different machine.

  • Diff between Oracle 9i database and 9ias application server.

    Can any one brief in detail the difference between Oracle 9i database and 9ias application server.

    Hi,
    Your question is the answer. Oracle9i Database manages all your eBusiness data and Oracle9iAS runs all your eBusiness
    applications. In a 3 tier architecture, Oracle9i Database fits in the Database tier where as Oracle9iAS fits in the middle
    tier. Oracle9iAS provides an infrastructure to run different types of applications(J2EE thru OC4J, Forms applns, Portal
    based applns, Wireless applns etc..)
    Cheers !

  • What is diff between oracle application server and weblogic server?

    what is the exact difference between oracle application server and weblogic application server?

    The difference between Oracle Application Server AND WebLogic Server has been discussed in a lot of forums dated 2008 and earlier comparing OAS10g with WebLogic10.0/WebLogic9.2
    But, now since Oracle has taken over WebLogic, this is not really important.
    Now, OAS has no further releases post 10g. WebLogic Server will be the Oracle's strategic application server going forward.
    So, if your query is for choosing one of them for a new environment, you are better of with WebLogic Server 10.3.6 OR WebLogic Server 12g
    As we will not have further releases of OAS and also OAS10g will be end of life soon, we recommend Oracle WebLogic Server.
    If you still want to know the differences, here is one such old oracle documentation link that talks about it

  • Diff between oracle 8i sql Engine and oracle 9i sql Engine

    hi,
    1)Can anyone tell me difference between oracle8i sql engine and 9i sql engine.
    2)Does oracle 9i uses the index defaultly if any primary key is there in table
    Thanks
    Rama

    > 1)Can anyone tell me difference between oracle8i
    sql engine and 9i sql engine.
    They are different versions.
    If you have been expecting a list of differences and enhancements and new product features... forget it. It will take several pages to list. Rather refer to the 9i product feature sheet.
    > 2)Does oracle 9i uses the index defaultly if any
    primary key is there in table
    Huh? Oracle will use an index if it determines that it costs less to use that index to get to the data, than not using an index.

  • Diff between Oracle 9i and 10g with date format MON in FRENCH language

    Hi,
    With a session in FRENCH language, when i do:
    SQL> select to_char(sysdate,'dd-mon-yyyy') from dual;
    The result in 10g is:
    TO_CHAR(SYSDA
    27-juil.-2005
    The result in 9i is:
    TO_CHAR(SYS
    28-jul-2005
    Where is the problem and how can i have the same result in 10g than in 9i ?
    Thank you for your help.

    This behaviour is documented in the Oracle Database 10g Globalization Guide; it also includes the steps on how to revert back to the Oracle 9i locale definitions.
    http://download-west.oracle.com/docs/cd/B14117_01/server.101/b10749/applocaledata.htm#sthref1769
    Please note that 10g is using the correct convention, the Oracle9i locale definition files will be desupported in a future release.

  • Diff between oracle linux and oracle enterprise linux?

    hi all,
    i am new to this flavor of Linux. I know oracle linux has red hat source, but i am confused about the difference betweek oracle linux which comes in versions 4 (upto update 8) and 5 (latest update being 5).
    i need to install oracle enterprise linux at a client place, so i gota know the difference.
    Should i be installing oracle Linux first and then run the rpm of "Unbreakable Enterprise Kernel"? or is the "Unbreakable Enterprise Kernel" only for customers who require this kernal on oracle linux update 5 x86_64?
    thanks

    From what I understand Oracle Enterprise Linux (OEL) is a rebranded version of Red hat Enterprise Linux (RHEL).
    Oracle Linux (OL) is OEL plus Oracle optimization and custom, newer kernel. OL with Oracle "Unbreakable Enterprise Kernel" is available as x86_64 only and was introduced based on OEL or RHEL 5.5.
    You can install OEL 5.4 and easily upgrade to OEL 5.5, PMFJI, but can you point me to docs on how to make that upgrade? The timing of this msg on the forum was exquisite, as I started looking at that just today. I have an OEL 5.4 installation and would much rather upgrade to 5.5 than to have to rebuild from scratch.
    I did a yum install kernel with the 5.5 version of the public-yum-el5.repo. That went without a hitch and now reports "2.6.32-100.0.19.el5 #1" where I was 2.6.18-164.el5, but I also see
    [root@myserver ~]# uname -a
    Linux myserver 2.6.32-100.0.19.el5 #1 SMP Fri Sep 17 17:51:41 EDT 2010 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux
    [root@myserver ~]# cat /etc/enterprise-release
    Enterprise Linux Enterprise Linux Server release 5.4 (Carthage)
    [root@myserver ~]# cat /etc/redhat-release
    Red Hat Enterprise Linux Server release 5.4 (Tikanga)Bottom line is that I am charged with updating the kernel to a 2.6 version newer than 19 Sep, or applying a patch for the compat_alloc_user_space() function, and am not sure exactly how to proceed from here.
    if you like or start to install from version 5.5, and then install OL 5.5 by downloading the Oracle public yum repository and follow the instructions at http://public-yum.oracle.com

  • Diff between oracle's org.w3c.dom in xmlParserV2.jar and JREs impl?

    New to Java/oracle enviornment.
    I have an class that retrieves clobs from 10g. I need to include oracles xmlParserV2.jar in the classpath for XMLType support.
    I then added this class to my app.
    When I do this, areas in my app that previously used the JRE org.w3c.dom bombs with the exception: AbstractMethodError: getTextContent()....
    I am assuming that when I set xmlParserv2.jar in my class path, that my app is now using oracle's implementation of the org.w3c.dom....
    I say this because I see the org.w3c.dom.. in the xmlParserv2jar. Is my app running into some incompatibility with the way oracle has implemented the org.w3c.dom.
    Is there a xmlParserv2.jar without the org.w3c stuff?
    I need the XMLType support from xmlParserv2.jar. Is the XMLType support dependent on oracles implementation of the org.w3c.dom....?
    Thanks everyone;
    Any help appreciated.

    I dont find the j2ee_1.3.01.jar file in a simple oc4j installation. Its present in the bpel/lib directory if you install the full soa suite.
    I removed the oc4jclient.jar, and I see the same behavior as mentioned above. If I just have two jar files - orabpel.jar and orabpel-common.jar, my application does not start up (no logs are created). When I add the j2ee_1.3.01.jar, then the logs are created but I see the LinkageError in the opmn logs.
    Thx,
