Since DB2's architecture is similar to IDS8 in the way it handles distributed databases in a shared nothing environment, though IDS8 scles better than DB2, it is one main reason that IBM bought Informix I believe. The next release of DB2 is that merger also incorporating DB2's technology. A joining of three great servers. We can hope. Art S. Kagel > Umm...

Umm... Interesting, I didn't know of an "Arrowhead project before IBM bought Informix". Could you point some site to learn about it? (Just curious) Chucho! -----Original Message----- From: "Everett Mills" <eemills@nationalbeef.com> To: "Jesus Antonio Santos Giraldo" <jeansagi@myrealbox.com> Date: Thu, 19 Aug 2004 10:29:25 -0500 Subject: RE: anything like MS-SQL Jesus- I screwed up; I meant the Arrowhead project before IBM bought Informix.
