Tip

Arrows in Figure 4.6 represent both a flow of development and a flow of people and their skills. Oracle Corporation created Oracle software. Ingres Corporation did not create Oracle Database. However, the skills and personnel were passed between the different database vendor software companies. Ingres Corporation is now defunct and owned by Computer Associates.
