While in the scientific world, it took time to realize that Databases are of paramount importance in business and any field where it is necessary to collect store and process information. Since most of my work is on the Internet, you won't be surprised to know that my favorite RDMS is MySQL. I also have Oracle 8i running on 2 of my Red Hat Linux machines. If you just want to try your hand a Databases, I found out that a free copy of SQL Server for Windows98 (waoh) comes with the QUE Book, Using SQL Server! That is if you can tolerate the Windows platform. |
