1069.0. "General comparative info loc request" by CGOOA::HOMMEN () Wed Jan 22 1992 04:04

    Hi:
    
    I am looking for objective comparative information on relational 
    database products for the VMS world, specifically ORACLE, SYBASE,
    INGRES, and of course, RDB.  What I require at this time are the high
    level topics of what development tools are available, licensing and
    maintenance costs over time, training required to become proficient,
    performance across various cpu classes, that sort of thing.  What I
    have seen so far in this notes file, (and in RDB_40 where I have
    submitted a similar note), is great stuff, but too detailed for the
    discussion at this time.  
    
    Any pointers anyone might care to give as to where I could find such
    information would be greatly appreciated.

1069.1Did you check note 846?IJSAPL::OLTHOFHenny Olthof @UTO 838-2021Wed Jan 22 1992 10:157
    Did you check note 846, where the ButlerBloor report is discussed? Has
    not only figures on performance but also on functionality. From the
    same authors there's a report called "4GL: an Evaluation and
    comparison" that could help you on your way. Don't know if there's a
    Digital order number for that one.
