[comp.databases] Network Databases

We must have missed the create group for comp.databases
so bear with me if this has already been discussed.....

I'm interested in a network database that will work on
top of a portion of the INTERNET.  It will range
in bandwidth from 56kbits/sec to 1.544mbits/sec.

I would like the db to run on in order of importance:

SUN3's
4.3VAX/UNIX
GOULD UTX2.0 
VAX/VMS
IBMPC/DOS
IBM/VM/CMS
IBM/VM/MVS

The db should have a SQL interface and be interfaced from
the C language in UNIX or something else in the other environments.

That is a starter.

The two that immediately come to mind are RTI & ORACLE but I
don't want to leave anyone else...

If you have such a beast running in your environment please
contact me so that I might find out how well it is working.

Lastly, related to the above, I'd like a mail path/address
for at least rti & oracle if anyone knows.  I believe
I have a path to rti but confirmation would be nice.
