The real difference between SQL Server and Oracle, in 2 parts

Sean McCown seems to struck a nerve among readers by pointing out that Oracle’s documentation is not so easy to find.

Taking the discussion to a new level, McCwon writes that, "I will say to those of you who said Oracle is easier to admin that SQL, you're just crazy. You've clearly never had to manage tablespaces in Oracle before."

Hard-to-find documentation won't help much either.

"Well, going from my comment stats I'd say that there are plenty of people out there who say I'm wrong and who are very certain that Oracle's community is really on the ball. And there are those who don't," McCown writes in Oracle's community, part 2.

"So what I can gather from this is that maybe Oracle hasn't done enough to get the word out on all of their resources. Because while I don't know the research skills of everyone who wrote me, I do know my own. I research things for a living basically. And if I've had problems finding some of these resources, then I know others have too."
