Taking the blinkers off

Iwas skimming and saw this article: Choosing the “Right” DBMS Engine. It piqued my interest because I’ve used a lot of databases over the years (Oracle, SQL Server, DB2, MySQL, PostgreSQL, Access, IDMSX, Btrieve, probably others I’ve forgotten) and as with anything, you only use a small number of them extensively at any one time so you quickly get out of date on the pros/cons of each (particularly as I’m not in the business software world any more so my DB usage has decreased). So, I thought this would be an interesting article to read if it compared and contrasted a few based on the current situation…
