Make sure that: 1) there is a well defined API for external application (including your PHP client) to access data. This *must* written an paper and documented. No code writing prior to this. 2) all about referential integrity is done within Oracle 3) use triggers and SPs to enforce data consistency (handle with care, they load the db server if used unproperly) 4) find a good DBA to maintain the system (Oracle can degrade quite dramatically if not properly maintained) 5) interact very little with the DB, to avoid loading its server. (That is, call an SP, get the result set from a tmp table) 6) avoid locking as much as you can 7) Prey the current Oracle bugs are not too evil. 8) get ready to say good bye to your vacations. 9) ask for a paycheck raise Пока Альберто Киев @-_=}{=_-@-_=}{=_-@-_=}{=_-@-_=}{=_-@-_=}{=_-@-_=}{=_-@-_=}{=_-@ LoRd, CaN yOu HeAr Me, LiKe I'm HeArInG yOu? lOrD i'M sHiNiNg...
