Database
Definition
Database Management Systems operated by CSCF
- Oracle - One of the world's top two commercial databases. CS used to teach database courses using Oracle, but no longer does. UW still uses Oracle.
- IBM DB2 - The other world's top commercial database. A free-download Community Edition is available. DB2 is currently used to teach CS 338 and CS 348 database courses.
- MySQL - "The world's most popular open source database". We currently use it to provide a general-purpose database service in the student.cs and core.cs regions and to support internal services, like RT. It is commonly used by students in the CS Software Engineering courses.
- PostgreSQL - "The world's most advanced open source database". We currently use it to teach the CS 448 database course.
