Re: Letters of Oracle The numbers denote versions of ORACLE. Well, for 'i' in 8i or 9i I dont know but 'g' in 10g stands for "GRID" i.e. Grid computing across the network. You can create clusters in network to distributed administration using grid computing. Patrick.

Re: Letters of Oracle So I'm correct with my guess that it is the editions or versions of Oracle. I hope someone could answer what the "i" stands for. But for us to have an idea, what is the difference between versions with "i" from versions with "g"?

Re: Letters of Oracle 'i' Stands for Internet support.
