4570.0. "DBI pointer needed" by MPOS02::PEREZ (Trust, but ALWAYS verify!) Wed Apr 24 1996 15:59

    I need to obtain information on Database Integrator (DBI).  I read that
    we recently sold it to Oracle, but I'm looking for a notes conference
    where it is discussed and a pointer to a kit.
    
    I also need a contact inside digital for the product, and the most
    recent kit available to us internally (I don't think my local
    management is going to give Oracle the no-doubt astronomical price they
    want just so I can come up to speed for a POSSIBLE project...
    
    I tried Accessworks, which pointed me to DBINTEGRATOR_PUBLIC which
    wasn't found. and MTT which still exists but doesn't have any topics
    that even talk about DBI.
    
    Are we out of the database integration business too?

4570.1	A contact...	STAR::VERGE		`Wed Apr 24 1996 16:08`	8
	The PM on this is : Bill Hill MSBCS::HILL DTN: 223-3164
4570.2	pointer to notes file and technical resource	NECSC::BASTINE	Bring on the next season!!	`Wed Apr 24 1996 16:36`	19
	You can access the DBINTEGRATOR_PUBLIC notes file on: ORAREP::NOMAHS::DbINTEGRATOR_PUBLIC However, the kit locations are no longer valid as they pulled the node off of the Digital network already and put it on the Oracle network. Not sure how you would go about getting the kit for internal use at this point. I don't know what was in the contract and am not sure of legalities of distributing the kit inside Digital. I guess the PM would be the person to call on that. If you need any technical assistance, I am still supporting DBI for the next few weeks and could probably help you out with questions.

4570.3	See ORAREP::ORAREP2:[NOTES$LIBRARY]ORACLE_PROGRAM for more info	CLUSTA::HALL	Bill Hall - ACMS Engineering - TAY1-2	`Wed Apr 24 1996 22:30`	8
	You might want to check out the notesfile ORAREP::ORAREP2:[NOTES$LIBRARY]ORACLE_PROGRAM. Note 71.0 has information on how to obtain Oracle kits for use internally. Bill
4570.4		TLE::REAGAN	All of this chaos makes perfect sense	`Thu Apr 25 1996 10:17`	5
	What about kits that were on previously released CDROMs? You should be able to install them as long as you can find a PAK. (I guess thats the real key issue...) -John
4570.5	Got 'em - hopefully...	MPOS02::PEREZ	Trust, but ALWAYS verify!	`Thu Apr 25 1996 14:50`	3
	Thanks for the pointers. I spoke to Renee this morning, and if I'm lucky I"ll be able to rummage around and get the products and PAKS I need so I can render myself somewhat less incompetent!
