If not, how are >they different? How do they compare in performance? University Ingres is available from postgres.berkeley.edu via anonymous FTP. It is the distant ancestor of ASK/Ingres/RTI Ingres. The code itself can answer your other questions. Anyway, we at the Postgres project would much rather you got Postgres, which does far more than University Ingres, _and_ we are willing to answer questions about it :-) NOTE: they are _not_ compatible.
