What are the advantages of Oracle8i over Oracle8? Which one is preferred for huge data storage/access and why?

Both Oracle8 and Oracle8i are desupported products, so you might want to look at using Oracle 9.2 or, ideally, Oracle 10g release 2 if it is available for your platform. Oracle 10g incorporates many improvements for very large databases over both Oracle8 and Oracle8i, even Oracle9i. To read about the new features of Oracle 10g release 2, download the Oracle Database New Features Guide for 10g Release 2 (10.2) from Oracle's Technology Network.
