Sorry if I put this in the wrong section.
I am starting a course in Database management and we have to choose database software to use. We are given free will to choose whatever we like. No MS ACCESS though.
My question is which one would be the most beneficial to choose?
Oracle or SQL Server? or any other?
Please be as specific as possible... meaning product name, version, etc.
BTW... I am running Win 8.1 Professional. If I need to run in a VM using another OS I can easily set that up.
I need an answer by 5pm tomorrow (Wednesday). That will give me time to find it, download it, and start messing with it.
My project is to just find one and install it.
I just want to choose something that is going to be relevant in the "real" world. One that is commonly used by companies because I might as well learn what's out there.
Thanks in advance.
