no kidding.
In the time it took you to post this 5 times, you could have researched it on OTN or Metalink with ease. This is not counting just going out and buying an Oracle Admin book which would tell you everything you need to know. Also, I am sure there are threads here on this site that you can search for. search --> parallel server

Just to tell you.. I am accessing this from netcafe. I dont have access to metalinks. Anyway I am serching for it..

Thanks again

Some small anks uses Oracle for Banking, but never heard Oracle being used alone with affiliation world wide.

We, an investment bank in Scandinavia, run Oracle Parallel Server in a distributed enviroment.

What is small bank? Define small.

Well, since we're talking about world wide affiliated banks here, any banks that don't have world wide affiliation is considered small banks. Now, it's all for you now to identify where your bank belongs.

But if you're going to quote everything that I've said in previous post, you can clearly comprehend that though ORACLE is widely used world wide, BANKING sector is not its forte. That's all what I meant.

To give you a vivid reason why it is not, its implementation of sending and receiving data out from the network is far to slow and bulky compare to the languages that were really design to do such job such as TAL(Transaction Application Language).
It's like a comparison of sending a TEXT messages(Short Messages Services) and sending an e-mail with 1 page which is practically the same message. :-)

TAL uses binary codes to identify and designate kind of transaction, bank were transaction happens, and the transaction itself. In turn it will only form a few bytes to be send to the hosts after it passes its security accessories such as ATALLA. So usually transaction is done in one pass. It will only re-send the transaction back if it fails with its data validation,parity checking(such like).

Now, thus Oracle has this specialization? Please tell me that it has, then I will agree to you that Oracle can also dominate in BANKING sector.
