Thanks for your very quick response.
What about MSSQL?

Well supported? ... i do try my best :D
I'm running a few farms on 1.17 and some standalones on 1.19 (i think?!), but i'm in the process of switching all of them to 1.21 once it's officially out and i manage to port some of our in-house extensions. Oracle versions on all of them have just been upgraded to 11g R2 (11.2.0.3) SE, but they used to run on most versions from 10g R2 (10.2.0.2) onward.
I'd suggest you go with the 1.20 or better yet wait for 1.21. You'll also have to up PHP to 5.3+.

We have to switch our database from mysql to Oracle or msSql. We notice that there is a DatabaseOracle.php in the db folder. Is Oracle or MsSQL supported well with mediaWiki?
Below is our current versions: MediaWikihttp://www.mediawiki.org/
1.15.3
5.2.8 (cgi-fcgi)
5.5.19
We know we are not current with our mediaWiki version. From the little we read the older versions may work better than the newer versions. We are willing to switch to whichever version of the software that works the best with Oracle or MsSQL.
Could you also point me to documentation on the databases? At this time we are not concerned about the 3rd party extensions that we have installed. We are more concerned about the core code.
