DB2 Vs Oracle

Hello Experts,

I have a knowledge and work experience in DB2 and Oracle. I want to know which RDBMS would be better in career perspective.

Right now I have a choice to select one of them as my Primary Skill and I am so confused in choosing between them; because this would be my last chance and I could not turn back in future.

Could you please tell me which would be preferable in selecting as a career?

Myself has figured out some points which i would like to tell.

- Technically DB2 is behind the Oracle. Db2 is still developing the features which Oracle has already implemented and acquired market based on it (ex. RAC etc.).
- Everybody knows Oracle, so more people are into Oracle. Less people are in DB2.
- Though; Oracle openings are much more than DB2.
- Pay scale of DB2 resource is more. (But Not so sure about this.. )

Please let me your views on this.


Thank You!
