DBD::Oracle, and Oracle RDB
Hi folks,
Someone posed a question to me today to which I could not find the answer in
any of the usual places: Does DBD::Oracle support the database known as
"Oracle RDB"? Apparently this is a somewhat different system to the Oracle we
know and love, which Oracle bought from Digital (where it was once called
simply RDB) and added layers of Oracle-ish stuff on top. He seemed to think it
was pretty similar to Oracle proper, but I'm not so sure.
The guy who asked was wanting to make a decision between Apache/perl/DBI and
Oracle Webserver/Oracle RDB Web Agent and could be swayed apache/perl-wards
if the DBI will talk to the database.
If DBD::Oracle won't do what I'm looking for, are there any alternatives that
you could recommend?
TIA,
K.
