You may have noticed that I'm very reluctantly dragging myself into the NT arena...the Informix NT products are surprisingly good. I'm chomping at the bit to get my hands on an Intel cluster version of XPS. I work for a division of Stratus Computers, and Stratus has just introduced a product called RADIO, which is a shared-nothing cluster of Pentium servers running NT. Stratus is marketing these (like everything else that Stratus does) as fault-tolerant, high-avaibility systems. They talk to customers who can just barely tolerate 5 minutes of downtime ***A YEAR***. Now for a fearless prognositication......once we get XPS on RADIO, we'll see some killer performance numbers. Anybody got an appetite for high-availibility, high performance database machines? Line forms at the rear. ;) <<<BROWNNOSE MODE OFF>>> NOTE: personal opinions only. Stratus disavows all knowledge of these opinions. -- --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Joe Lumbley(jlumbley@netcom.com) ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
