Just got back from SAP TechEd. Oracle was there, Sybase was there, IBM DB2/UDB was there, Microsoft was there........ Guess who wasn't there....... Way to go, Informix. andrew@andrew.bal.bna.boeing.com wrote in message <7q7m14$ice$1@news.xmission.com>... > >Here here ! >Get off your *sses Informix dudes ! > >Andrew > >> > ---------- >> > From: Davin Harvey[SMTP:DAVIN_HARVEY@STANCHART.COM] >> > Sent: Saturday, August 28, 1999 12:09:32 AM >> > To: informix-list@iiug.org >> > Subject: RE: Informix vs. Oracle >> > >> Bloody right too.

The domains of intervention are: Unix-NT ports/downsizing from environments like PL/1, COBOL, FORTRAN, ASM and other. Through automated procedures and reuse of the existing components we deliver an optimal method for complicated and risky ports. Unix-NT portable application architecture using C/C++-RDB-OO (UML); applying the MVC model. The final system must become in its bigger part portable to any system with an ANSI C/C++ compiler and libraries. The RDB interfaces are built using the embedded SQL interface-esql (Informix and oracle). Unix system programming and administration using the C/C++, Perl and ksh development environments; we offer a class library of system programs and scripts that can be easily integrated in the final system's management procedures. Unix internet programming using the Java, JavaScript, C/C++, Perl, cgi and FrontPage development environments with the possibility of integrating the existing applications. Unix monitoring, audit, troubleshooting, installation, integration and set-up; precise working procedures are established to help IT professionals in their monitoring, audit and integration activities.
