Hi!

This message may be off topic and I apologize a lot if so. 

I would like to have your opinions about open source databases versus
commercial ones. I had a _serious_ debate with some of my colleagues
about open source in general but when I started to compare mysql to
oracle, they literally fired at me as if I had made a blasphemy... They
are stating that Oracle is above any comparison and that it is the must
in the universe of relational databases.

Since, I am searching some objective informations in order to classify
these databases. I found (and was surprise to find) that the real
alternative to oracle were rather postgresql than mysql: when comparing
the features.

But I didn't find any head to head comparison between open
source/commercial databases. 

Do you know any benchmark results that made this kind of comparison?

Thanks a lot for any suggestion.

And again, my apologizes if this is not the right place to ask such
questions.

Best regards,
Kader.
