7. Competitive comparison Source: Microsoft Corporation

8. Price comparison Number of CPUsOracle9i Enterprise Edition SQL Server 2000 Enterprise Edition With SQL Server, you'll save … 1$40,000 US$19,999 US$20,001 US 2$80,000 US$39,998 US$40,002 US 4$160,000 US$79,996 US$80,004 US 8$320,000 US$159,992 US$160,008 US 16$640,000 US$319,984 US$320,016 US 32$1,280,000 US$639,968 US$640,032 US Basic Database Server Source: Microsoft Corporation [4]

9. T-SQL vs. PL/SQL Source: Database Journal FeaturePL/SQLT-SQL Indexes B-Tree indexes, Bitmap indexes, Partitioned indexes, Function-based indexes, Domain indexes B-Tree indexes Tables Relational tables, Object tables, Temporary tables Relational tables, Temporary tables Triggers BEFORE triggers, AFTER triggers, INSTEAD OF triggers AFTER triggers, INSTEAD OF triggers Procedures PL/SQL statements, Java methods, third-generation language (3GL) routines T-SQL statements ArraysSupportedNot Supported

10. Designing Databases- Architecture Database Interface Client Application Net Library Database Engine Open Data Service ClientSQL Server

11. Creating Database using T-SQL CREATE DATABASE logical_database_name ON PRIMARY (NAME = logical_file_name, FILENAME = ' path\file_name', SIZE = size, MAXSIZE = maxsize, FILEGROWTH = filegrowth_increment) LOG ON (NAME = logical_file_name, FILENAME = ' path\file_name', SIZE = size, MAXSIZE = maxsize, FILEGROWTH = filegrowth_increment)

12. Internet and XML support Rich XML Support Query relational database with XPath Query relational database with SQL and return XML results Update relational data as if it was XML Load huge XML files into existing SQL Server 2000 database, converting them to relational data Query your SQL Server via URLs from your Web Browser of Web application Access SQL Server XML functionality via.NET Managed Classes

13. Weakness Only support Windows-based platform. T-SQL is not strong. Security holes.

14. Future Enhancement of XML support XML type –Cross Domain query Web Service Remove the requirement of IIS. Support.Net technology Improve business intelligence platform.
