Microsoft and SAP

At the outset I apologize for this question, if it looks inappropriate
here.
There is a debate going on in oracle newsgroup about which database Microsoft
is using for its internal implementation of SAP at their HeadQuarters. Per them
it is Oracle, even though this one mentions it as SQLServer2K (well obviously).
http://www.microsoft-sap.com/docs/Mi...se%20Study.pdf
If anyone knows about it, can you please email me or post here.
thanks.
I can say with 100% certainty that Microsofts SAP implementation runs on SQL
Server.
Which newsgroup is this being stated in? I am happy to respond to the
comments there.
Thx

You can quote me on this - ' MS internal SAP system runs on SQL Server and
has for many many years.'

For many years?
I wonder how Daniel Morgan can't verify this simple fact.

|||When I was writing Inside SQL Server 2000, back in 2000, I talked with the
DBAs managing MS's SAP implementation about lessons learned for running
VLDBs. Even back then, they had been running SAP on SQL Server for quite a
while, and shared some great tips with me.
I knew that MS ran SAP on SQL Server, and had included this in the previous
version of my book (Inside SQL Server 7):
By the time of the launch, more than a dozen sites were in full production
with SQL Server 7.0, including Microsoft's internal SAP implementation and
barnesandnoble.com, HarperCollins, CBS Sportsline, Comcast Cellular, and
Southwest Securities. The SQL Server 7.0 development team released the
product to manufacturing on December 2, 1998, using build 7.00.623.07, with
a code freeze date of November 27, 1998. The product became available to the
public in January 1999.
<< I wonder how Daniel Morgan can't verify this simple fact.>>
I guess he hadn't read my book. :-)
