New Implementation Oracle 11g Windows 2003 vs Linux

Hi  ...

      One of my college working in company that has new implementation for Oracle database .They have a part time for DBA and this database will be running in two choice Suse lnux or windows .


     They afraid don't have one has experience in Linux   and DBA will be available as part time and they have limited budget and cannot hire nee people .in that case it is better to go to windows instead of SUSE

   Thanks

Thanks guys. Choose to go what they feel they comfortable . Linux more stable than windows but you must have ready to train your stuff  and ready to manage platform.
>> Linux more stable than windows

Don't fall into the hype.  Windows is plenty stable with the right sys admin.  The issue is to many people run setup.exe and call themselves administrators.
Mohssinm,

You don't say if this is for a production server or development.

There's also no sense of requirements, size SLAs.

slightwv's comment about setup.exe or default setup, I would hope anyone calling themselves a DBA would not run the installer pressing next a few times and think they are done.

I am not a DBA, but I am shocked at the amount of times I do poor workmanship.

If its for production then either should require investment in time and config.

Cheers
