[comp.databases] INFORMIX-Star, performance etc.?

esa@tglobe2.tollpost-globe (Esa K Viitala) (10/16/90)

We plan to distribute our databases by using the INFORMIX-Star product.
Further, we plan to run TCP/IP on X.25 WAN.

Anyone interested in commenting on this?

In particular I am interested in hearing if anybody's done this and did
you succeed? Will the response times be acceptable? How about comms
costs? What criteria can we use to keep the communications costs as low
as possible? Any tools available? Of course, I am interested in general 
remarks, too.

The application will be programmed in Informix-4GL. We estimate to have
circa 100 tables in our database. Our X.25 WAN consists of 40 sites.
