Re: Recommendations? Need image-capable DBMS for Sun

Russell, NeoAccess is a cross-platform object-oriented database engine based on C++. It consists of a set of C++ classes that extend standard application frameworks to provide object persistence and the organizational capabilities of an object database. NeoAccess includes very strong support for BLOBs. As a matter of fact, one of the sample applications that come with the product, called "Photographer's Assistant", which is a simple image cataloging application using BLOBs. Just to give you a few more details... All of the data contained in NeoAccess databases, including indices, can be in a single file, so users can treat a database file as they would a standard document file. Files are binary compatable across platforms as well. And the programming model is designed to keep visible complexity to a minimum while providing a feature-rich foundation on which to build and enhance applications. The product comes with full source code and is priced at only $749 per developer with no runtime licensing fees. I'd be glad to send out additional information if you mail me your particulars and a little bit of info about the kind of development you're looking to use it for (platform, development environment, etc.).
