Goto borland.com or oracle.com and look at the success stories link. It tells you which customers are using what systems to get their IT infrastructure going.

Any company that bills customer must have a database which would include at least: name, address, city, state, zip, account number, product code, product name, cost, tax base, blah, blah,blah.  With that in mind, you could name a hundred companies with out thinking very long.\n-MM

Normally private software have their own way to store data through proprietary format files.\n\nAn Microsoft Access or Microsoft SQL Server can do the same thing (and often better) than those proprietary format but you need to buy them (and they are expensive).\n\nIn fact, Access and SQL Server is normally used by business to keep their information about their customer. I won't tell you the difference between all those databases but if you really need something to work with, I suggest you SQL Server 2005 Express which is totally free.

It might be tricky since you databases are usually designed to complement a company's business processes and without understanding what business processes they have it becomes quite difficult to define tables, and the data you need to capture. You can however do some research on similar companies as their business processes turn to be similar.\n\nYou can also call a company up and i am sure someone there will be willing to provide you with some information.\n\nNow does your tutor want you to design a database on an actual company or do you also have a case study. usually you can get a lot of information just from your assignment.\n\nHope this helps

That being a microsoft program u can use a ligter version which i beleive is free too... it's called SQL 2005 Express Edition... if you want something fully robust and not deal with the high cost, I would personally recommend MySQL. I have used it in all my softwares and we currently use it in our main datacenter to handle all our data from our 35 remote offices world wide... it is extremely fast... we handle over a million transactions a day... give it a try.

Both SQL Server and Oracle are Relational Database Management Systems. Microsoft Access is not; it is run by a jet engine instead.\n\nMicrosoft created Access in an attempt to compete with FoxPro (a product similar to Access). When Access failed to do compete with FoxPro, Microsoft bought the FoxPro company.\n\nNow for the Oracle and SQL Server, both are Relational Database Management Systems. A Relational Database Management System is capable of supporting concurrency (concurrent access to data), transactions (ablity to excute queries as an atomic block with rollback capability) so it can handle more concurrent users and it is for sure more reliable in a multiuser environment.\n\nIt is very hard to say which (Oracle or SQL Server) is better because there are so many factors that have to be taken into consideration, however SQL Server enjoyes a remarkable growth rate because it is easier to use and more cost-effective than the competing enterprise Database systems like Oracle and IBM DB2. Of course oracle and IBM DB2 have been entrenched in the enterprise for some time now , unlike SQL Server.\n\nOne last point. You can use any of the above products to handle 1000 records, However since you are still learning about Database programming, I suggest you learn either SQL Server or Oracle so that you learn some Database programming concepts like the use of Database objects such as stored procedures, triggers, transactions and so on.

MS Access comes with some sample databases.  Other than that, you just have to look for some.

For a free price, MySQL is very good.  We use it at work for our database applications.

It is a datawarehouse. You can create queries and reports in Business Warehouse.

MONSTER.COM I think has examples.

Since mysql, Oracle, DB2 and Microsoft all offer free versions of their databases I am not sure who would pay money for a database.  Try selling something else.

Oracle is a Database Management System (DBMS) that is very common in most companies underlying their core systems. It fits very well working behind Java coded systems.\n\nOracle is not really a system in its own right, it is merely an enabler for managing and storing data in a structured way such that an overlying system can write, read, and change data on it to perform business functions.

I have never had a good experience working with or converting data to/from Oracle. Unless you have a very good reason to do this I would advise against it. I don't have anything against them as a company or anything (not like people who hate everything Microsoft) but I have been working with DBs for about 9 years now, from mySQL, Access, Oracle, AS400, MSSQL, Filemaker, etc and have always had the worse time setting up and installing Oracle. Very hard to migrate data to it. If you are migrating data out to MS SQL they have some nice tools for that.\n\nYou can also plan on having to have somebody very skilled in this to perform backups and maintenance routines.\n\nI have converted several Oracle apps to other DBs just because we didn't have the personel or money to dedicate a large chunk of someones time to support it and couldn't find any advantages to use it. The only app that we kept on Oracle was one we designed for GM because they had a sitewide license and couldn't validate using a different DB, although it lengthened our dev time.\n\nI wish you look with the conversion and hope it goes smoother then my experiences.

Given that Yahoo has huge list of services (http://docs.yahoo.com/docs/family/more ), some free and some premium, I believe there are very different database requirements on different functions of those services and they hand-pick the optimal database and configuration for a specific purpose - MySQL, gdbm, Berkeley db, Oracle,  home-cooked databases, etc.
