[comp.databases] Unix DBMS with lots of front ends

mjw@wasp.eng.ufl.edu (Michael J. Wohlgemuth) (08/09/90)

We are looking for a Unix DBMS with front ends for IBM PC compatibles
and Apple Macintoshes.  The data will probably reside on a Sun 4/280,
and be accessed by PC's, Mac's, and other Unix machines throughout
campus.  Any information, recommendations, or war stories would
be greatly appreciated.  

On a related note, the data will originally be downloaded from an IBM
3090.  Any suggestions as to the best way to get the data would also
be appreciated.  Currently, we have BARR Systems' RJE package, which
allows a PC to act as a remote.  This will work, but if anyone has a
better idea, I'd like to hear it.

Thanks,
Mike
