I'm doing a project for a database class (don't worry, it's not due tomorrow :P), and I need an Oracle server I can connect to. I'm trying to install it on my home box, but I'm slow with Linux. Really, I'd just like a sandbox server to connect to so I can run my homework assignments on them. Are those out there?
Why not try and use a pre-built Oracle VM ?
To my knowledge there aren't freely available Oracle instances you can access at your leisure -- there'd be patching and hacking attempts to deal with. I don't see any revenue to gain from it, so it's very unlikely.
However, Oracle provides a free version (Express, currently 10g). If you want an instance you can connect to at your whim, I'd suggest using a Virtual Machine (VM) software so you could create & run a VM, that would use a host OS of your choice, in order to install an Oracle Express instance that you could then connect to. That, or setup a separate box for hosting Oracle from.
You can get the free version of Oracle XE easily from eDelivery.Oracle.com
It runs on windows and is dirt-simple to install. Great platform for testing things out quickly.

Maybe this question has been asked before but as far as i've checked the entries i've found two possible entries which are very old, so would like to start a new post around the discussion ?
Found this post on Google Code, but project is discontinued to make it available on web:
http://code.google.com/p/oracle-gui/
https://code.google.com/archive/p/database-explorer/
I want to have your opinions and experience is there a any tool which can be deployable on server as a web application (i.e. nodejs, tomcat war application) that i can use similiar to sqldeveloper ?
SQLDeveloper for web is not fitting for me because i am not using Oracle on Cloud so i want a deployable tool which i can manage on my web application server.
If it is an Oracle database, it might already have Oracle Application Express (Apex) installed.
Apart from being a tool to develop applications (all you need is a browser), it also contains SQL Workshop which offers
object browser
data workshop
query builder
schema comparison tool
lets you execute SQL commands and scripts
etc.
So - have a look.
SQL Developer Web will be available for you on-prem later this year via ORDS.
You'll be able to run it for your own local databases, versions 11gR2 and higher.
For free.

So let me try to explain what i want. I search a lot on the internet but i did not find. So i want an hyper-visor bare-metal. All i want is something like Vmware but to be installed on bare-metal, not on some platform host.
I find Xenserver but you cannot access the interface of virtual machines from the same machine. (You should use Xencenter to access it).
I do not have two machines,and i want to know if somebody have an idea about some technology.
So, seems like you do not have any restrictions about technologies and hypervisors providers , I can advise you then to use Hyper-v of Microsoft but to use it as a bare-metal hypervisor you should install Windows Server (or the System Center Manager) before, then activate the Hyper-v role on it and Reboot.. here is a tuto , check it maybe that will help you : http://www.altaro.com/hyper-v/install-hyper-v-bare-metal/

I need to do make small database apps with DELPHI.
Can I do them without using any SQL servers ?
I ask that because I want to avoid SQL server installing in the target machine
Does DELPHI has a built in engine that can replace SQL server ?
Make use of FireDAC and SQLite
http://docwiki.embarcadero.com/RADStudio/XE5/en/Connect_to_SQLite_database_(FireDAC)
SQLite works on any platform
https://www.sqlite.org/
For windows, you can use Firebird Embebded.
You only need copy some files in the application directory for use it.
Regards.
FireDAC has Local SQL feature. You can use in-memory database with TFDMemTables component which ships with newer versions of Delphi, or use TClientDataSet. Also google on embedded database with Delphi if you need a more powerful solution.
http://docwiki.embarcadero.com/RADStudio/Seattle/en/Local_SQL_%28FireDAC%29
You can use a TClientDataSet component

I'm looking for the ISO image of SQL Server Management Studio, I got many results related to SQL Server, but I'm confused which one of them to download.
Download SQL Server Management Studio Express version for free.
http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=29062
You can find the SQL Server Management Studio preview releases as well as previous standalone releases here:
https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/mt238290.aspx
You can visit Turbo.net and stream SSMS in a container, which means you don't even need to "install" it. Clever stuff. And at no cost.
It's highly likely that launching apps via containers will be the norm in a few years' time. It's great that Turbo already provides this service.

Do you know any free tool which would constitute a web-based SQL database generic query interface, incl.:
(mainly) allowing to type in an SQL query and display the result in some nice way
the interface should allow for some basic security - allowing only SELECT queries
the very need is to support MS SQL Server, but Oracle support would be useful
should run against an existing database instance without any re-configuration needed
might be simple, no need to browse tables, analyze database columns or anything else you would experience in SQLDeveloper or SQL Server Management Studio
Platform / language / etc. is of second importance.
The StackExchange Data Explorer has this functionality (example) and it is open source, so you may be able to just install and make use of it, or even extract the relevant code.
Perhaps something like the SQL Fiddle?
Obviously, this is mainly for demonstration purposes - it won't help you if you want to install it on top of your own database.
Re:dash (Redash) is a promising new open-source player on the market. From their own website:
re:dash is our take on freeing the data within our company in a way
that will better fit our culture and usage patterns.
Prior to re:dash, we tried to use traditional BI suites and discovered
a set of bloated, technically challenged and slow tools/flows. What we
were looking for was a more hacker'ish way to look at data, so we
built one.
