What is the difference between Oracle and MySQL

Oracle_WalkerFeb 11 2013 — edited Feb 11 2013
Hi,

I would like to know the major difference between Oracle and MySQL. I have a project to generate XML files from database tables, i have used oracle's built XML functions XMLELEMENT, XMLATTRIBUTES, XMLFOREST, XMLAGG. I really want to know if these functions (or) similar functions are supported/availabe in MySQL.

I am having a hard time to find out best linux distro for installing Oracle11g, so i am planning to switch to MySQL. Please help, Thanks in advance.
