- Progress runs under just about any UNIX, DOS, BTOS, and bunches of
- other systems (including A/UX on Macintoshes). It is a very nice database,
- with a beautiful 4GL and full SQL dialects.
-
- It has wonderful transaction capabilities, and a very good crash recovery
- system. In most respects, it is quite comparable to Oracle.
