Oracle

 Oracle Database is a database management system from Oracle. This DBMS is also actively used by large companies and costs a lot of money, but in return it provides great functionality and reliability. Therefore, Oracle Database and Microsoft SQL Server are serious competitors to each other. The results of Oracle in the rankings are not so clear, for example, according to PYPL and DB-Engines, Oracle Database ranks first, according to Stack Overflow Oracle is in eighth position, according to surveys of Oracle software companies in fourth place in popularity. If we take into account only a couple of ratings, Oracle can even be put in first place, but if we take into account all the results, then Oracle cannot be put in first place, therefore, in our rating, this DBMS occupies the third line.

Overview of the Ventoy program

 Overview of the Ventoy program

Ventoy is a free and open source bootable flash drive software.


The principle of operation of such applications is as follows: using a special application, we write each ISO image to a USB flash drive, and we do this every time we want to add some new operating system or application to our multiboot flash drive, i.e. we need to constantly use this application.


However, the Ventoy program works a little differently, and this is its main feature: in order to create a multiboot flash drive, we do not need to perform any additional actions with ISO images, we just need to prepare the USB drive once, and then just copy various ISO files on a USB flash drive and moreover, this can be done as many times as you like. Moreover, this flash drive, after it becomes multiboot, you can continue to use, i.e. store regular files on it.


The Ventoy program creates a multi-boot flash drive that will work with both BIOS and UEFI.


You can copy almost any bootable ISO image, it can be both operating systems and various bootable applications.


Ventoy supports many types of OS and a lot of different ISO images have been tested, you can see the full list on the Ventoy program website in a special section - https://ventoy.net/en/isolist.html
