The superiority of the Oracle Database in the areas of performance, scalability, and availability to its competitors, including SQL Server 2000, has never been in question. Oracle Database 10g automates administrative functions in all the key areas of database management such as installation, space & object management, performance diagnostics & tuning, and backup & recovery. In contrast, SQL Server 2000 lacks some basic capabilities that make its management challenging. SQL Server is generally accepted to be lagging Oracle in the areas of scalability, availability, and performance. This paper takes an in depth look at the various capabilities of the two systems and compare them in the area of manageability.
