database? nope, data in 2016...

Hi fellows, As data now is really different than data like 5 years ago, I'd like to = understand a little bit how you guys see things. I'd like to prepare a = survey for later, but for now I wish to discuss with some of you about = your real life data and data usage. Typically, what is your bigger database (in storage, # of tables, # of = rows), what product do you use (or product family like RDBMS, NoSQL, = Hadoop-style, etc.), what do you plan on using, what are you struggling = with. The outcome will be a complete report, a bit like the one I did on = 4GL a while back. There's nothing to win (at least for now)... It sure is not completely Informix related but it is also to understand = better where Informix stands in 2016. I will have a more informal / = chatty discussion with this group before I'll try to extend and build = more a closed survey to get some more quantitative data... You can reply here or email me directly (if you do not have my email it = is either jgp at iiug.org <http://iiug.org/>; or jgp at jgp dot net). All = will be strictly confidential of course... I also created a slack team @ = data2wisdom.slack.com <http://data2wisdom.slack.com/>; and the public = channel is #2016. Thanks! jg
