I had been working with DB2 and SQL Server and when I started to work with Oracle, I was amazed at how Oracle could easily take me from traditional databases.

During this time, the functionality has continuously increased. Especially the SQL Developer has improved into a powerful tool for database administration and the creation of PL-SQL programs. The possibility of running my own C/C++ programs within the database core is also very important to me. > > **Cons**: The installation of an Oracle database as well as regular updates is still a complex process, especially when one wants to optimize the configuration for the specific application area. The licensing of certain components and add-ons is often not understandable and expensive. Unfortunately, the interface for integrating custom C/C++ programs has been neglected in favor of Java in recent years. > > Our customers use the Oracle database to store millions of production data for liability reasons over a period of 30 years. It is clear that during such time periods, a large amount of information accumulates that cannot be accessed with a simple select. By partitioning and dividing data sets, for example into 'annual tables', the system has enough performance to also enable complex analyses over large time series. This is particularly interesting when one conducts regression analyses in the age of AI, for example, to forecast the quality differences of recent years into the future. ----- Page: 1 / 20\ Next: [Next page](https://www.capterra.ca/software/5938/oracle-database?page=2) ## Links - [View on Capterra](https://www.capterra.ca/software/5938/oracle-database) ## This page is available in the following languages | Locale | URL | | de | | | de-AT | | | de-CH | | | en | | | en-AE | | | en-AU | | | en-CA | | | en-GB | | | en-IE | | | en-IL | | | en-IN | | | en-NZ | | | en-SG | | | en-ZA | | | es | | | es-AR | | | es-CL | | | es-CO | | | es-CR | | | es-DO | | | es-EC | | | es-MX | | | es-PA | | | es-PE | | | fr | | | fr-BE | | | fr-CA | | | fr-LU | | | it | | | ja | | | nl | | | nl-BE | | | pt | | | pt-PT | | ----- ## Structured Data
