With all these good news about Informix Dynamic Server, does the same hold true with Informix SE - well, at least in principle? I am planning for an installation with only a few GB (not more than 10) and 35 users working with the database. The server should run on a Linux machine (Intel based). Does this seem reasonable? Or does SE get to its limits in this scenario? --=3D=3D Sent via Deja.com http://www.deja.com/ =3D=3D-- ---Share what you know.
