David,
Informix has a number of tools if all you want to do is "backup a
database"
Oracle DB2 etc also work with legato, tivoli etc in more business
critical environments when you want to focus on "disaster recovery"
and "fault tolerance" which are specialist tools that may be more
appropriate than what is supplied as default with the database
component of your "24x7" solution.
Similarly,.Informix provides the capability of performing disk
mirroring and HDR yet there are other methods that can be used to do
this depending on what your business requirements are. People don't
question using specialist storage systems that offer "RAID 5 or RAID
1+0" when informix offers its own mirroring.
