Some Leap Years and Division by Zeoro example in different database systems
Some Leap Years and Division by Zeoro example in different database systems
The thread is on joelonsoftware.com and the question is about open source databases :
Quick issue, everyone. My company currently uses SQL Server, but we’re going to look at open-source databases because of MS’s crooked licensing rules (to be honest, they only have one SQL license, and are running it on a two-processor machine). They don’t want to shell out the extra $6,000 for another one, and I don’t blame them.
Times of change are upon the database market. The major established database companies are being challenged by open source upstarts like MySQL and PostgreSQL. [Add firebird to the list too]
Use Firebird SQL Server, if you have the luxury to choose among many database systems.
