Hi
I apologize for the cross-posting, but I need as many opinions as I can get.
We are planning to deploy ArcSDE on a dedicated "database" server for our
County data. We are seriously considering a Linux (RedHat Advanced Server
2.1) with Oracle (9i) environment versus a more traditional Windows 2000
with Microsoft SQL Server 2000 installation. My first question is: Is anyone
out there deploying SDE on Linux? Second: What are everyone's opinions on
the pros and cons of either configuration?
Over the last few months I have asked a lot of people what they thought of
deploying SDE on a Linux box and I continually heard the same response, "Is
it supported?" ESRI does support a couple of implementation scenarios. Most
people have warned me that it's a bumpier road because of the lack of user
support (very few others are deploying on Linux apparently). I am curious to
know why others might have decided or not decided to go with Linux.
Thanks a lot
Mike
