Thanks for the info. Certainly bladelets are the way to start understanding the blde concept which for what I've seen is very powerfull. This is a must learning tech.

Well - "DataBlade" is such a big, heavy term, laden down with implications of complexity and so on. "BladeLet" on the other hand, is a small, friendly word bright and hopeful and here to help. If "DataBlade" were a dog, it would be a rotweiler, but "BladeLet" is a highland terrier. Other than that there is no technical difference. DataBlades are shipped in binary form where BladeLets come with source code. DataBlades have better documentation and are generally supported by IBM/INFORMIX while BladeLets are after-market extensions written by interested folk. But both use the same product interfaces and SQL features to get where they want to go. Hope this helps!
