I just saw a useful white paper I thought I would share. Its from Microsoft and compares SQL Server 2008 and Oracle 11G. I am a big fan of SQL Server andwhat a tremendous vaue it represents. At Ntirety we support a large number of SQL Server databases, its a great product and only gettting better and better.

This is from the Microsoft Site:

Microsoft SQL Server has steadily gained ground on other database systems and now surpasses the competition in terms of performance, scalability, security, developer productivity, business intelligence (BI), and compatibility with the 2007 Microsoft Office System. It achieves this at a considerably lower cost than does Oracle Database 11g.

If we are still talking with "the Database Administration Experts", and not just "the SQL Server Administration Experts" it would be wise to checkout some of the suggested advantages, not to mention that if you want an impartial comparison you obviously don't ask one of the 2 parties being compared. That is common sense, you don't need to be an expert!
