Our financial computing group is looking for a 4GL to run on their new VAX 8700 (VMS). Currently the two top runners are Oracle and Ingres. Any comments or recommendations would be appreciated, particularly in the performance area. Since this topic may not appeal to everyone on info-vax respond to be directly. Thanks!

Box 85608 San Diego, CA 92138 we have oracle here. the decision was based on it's portability. They had some reservations about it's performance (on a ra-81'd 750) but have been using it for a few months. I do not belive they have "gone live" with it yet. I have forwarded your message onto the actual users for comment. <dp>
