[comp.databases] Empress experiences?

whm@sunquest.UUCP (Bill Mitchell) (12/29/88)

I've looked at quite a few databases as candidates for inclusion in a new
product, and the one that seems the most technically appealing is Empress.
Prior to my looking at it, I hadn't heard it mentioned very often and I'm
curious about what experiences others have had with it.  I'd appreciate any
comments you'd share about your experiences, good or bad, with Empress.

Bill, do you have any documentation regarding the pro's and con's of
the databases that you have looked at? We have been using Ingres for
a prototype but find it has some "don't likes". Some of us would be
interested if you could post it.
