Forum OpenACS Q&A: Re: Status of search for Oracle

Well, you've pretty much hit the nail on the head - sws works so no one has made moving Oracle searches to the back-end independent search package a priority.  It's too bad because it would be nice to have both DBs using the same front end.

The PITA aspects of getting SWS up and running are almost entirely Oracle's fault, though, IMO.  Switching OpenACS front ends to the db-independent version isn't going to do anything to make Oracle better behaved.
