Why until now have not seen any announcement from IBM in IT magazines about the new licenses of Informix? Just a curious situation.... If you search for "Informix" into Google News , you don't find ANYTHING in english about the new licences... on the contrary.. the first (or second) link will be : Database Migration from Informix to SQL Server 2008 Database Journal - 18/05/2010 Are you running your application against an Informix 11+ database? If so, have you ever wondered what it would take to move your database to SQL Server? ... I already seen this article before and when the new Licenses are announced by IBM I post a comment there saying about the Ultimate-C .

I am widely known in the UK as the Informix champion of an Informix partner of many years standing. I didn't hear anything about the new licences until I just happened to call a colleague in tech support for one of the distributors. He has given me a potted overview but that is as much as I know. My employers are pursuing a policy of replacing Informix sites with SQL Server based systems, and I am not at all surprised. If IBM or partners are listening - WAKE UP. regards Malcolm On Jun 9, 10:27 pm, Cesar Inacio Martins <cesar_inacio_mart...@yahoo.com.br> wrote: > Why until now have not seen any announcement from IBM in IT magazines about the new licenses of Informix? > > Just a curious situation.... > > If you search for "Informix" into Google News , you don't find ANYTHING in english about the new licences... on the contrary.. the first (or second) link will be : > > Database Migration from Informix to SQL Server 2008 > Database Journal - 18/05/2010 > Are you running your application against an Informix 11+ database?
