- Take the following setting for example: We have a network of PCs and
- workstations. Our applications involve heavy use of imaging (keeping
- documents with pics/images in them/catalogging/...) and all have to
- be stored in the database. The question comes down to which of Sybase
- or Informix would be a better choice?
-
- Please be specific about the details of any comparison you may offer
- (it will be hard to bore me on this one, so feel free and let your fingers
- bang at it as much as you like). I don't mean to start a war here and I
- hope that doesn't take place.
-
- In order to minimize the possibility of wars/flamers, please direct all
- your replies to my e-mail address (PLEASE do not followup on this). If
- there is enough interest, then I'll summarize and post.
-
- Thanks much.
