    Alternatives to Oracle DB2?

    We are in the middle of some discussions as to what would represent a better alternative for Oracle, or IBM DB2. Has anyone deployed Tibero, we have this on a short list.

    You have to come up with a selection criteria including type of data, volume of data, skill set, etc. There are many open source databases available now, but they are geared toward specific needs.

    Tibero vs Oracle

    In that case, I would still pick Tibero over Oracle. For one, Tibero 6 is half the price (license and support costs) of Oracle. In terms of features, one thing that really bored me with Oracle when I was at SAP is that I often got this error:

    "ORA-12899: value too large for column", but with TmaxSoft's DBMS I never have this issue, mainly because it's digital key lengths are double Oracle’s length.

    You can see full datasheet here: here.
