A relational database management system (RDBMS) from Oracle, which runs on more than 80 platforms. Introduced in the late 1970s, Oracle was the first database product to run on a variety of platforms from micro to mainframe. The Oracle database is Oracle's flagship product, and the current version is Oracle10g, introduced in 2005.
Version 8 (Oracle8) added object-oriented extensions, and Version 8i (Oracle8i) added Internet enhancements in 1999, including support for XML and Java. A JVM (Java interpreter) is built into the DBMS so that triggers and stored procedures can be written and executed in Java rather than PL/SQL. It enables Internet developers to write applications and database procedures in the same language. In addition, the JVM can also execute Enterprise JavaBeans (EJBs), turning the DBMS into an application server. See PL/SQL and Oracle Content Management SDK.
