Webcast: What leading DBMS vendors don't want you to know
Date: 2008-04-09
Location: Edison, New Jersey, United States
The IT industry likes leaders. But COBOL, IMS, and the IBM mainframe proved that leaders don't lead forever. Now their successors are aging too. High-end relational database management systems running on SMP (Symmetric Multi-Processing) machines were the dominant computing platform of the 1990s. But once again, it's time for something new.
For very high-end applications, the list of viable database management systems is indeed short. Scalability can be a problem. Extreme levels of security can be had from only a few DBMS. And if you truly need 99.99% uptime, there only are a few DBMS you even should consider.
But for most applications at any enterprise – and for all applications at most enterprises – super high-end DBMS aren’t required. Most Oracle or DB2 applications would run perfectly well on more cost-effective alternatives.
So should you port your existing applications to these alternative DBMS?
Join this webcast and learn:
The 11 important categories of data management
Which DBMS is best for which kinds of applications
How to choose a transactional or general-purpose relational DBMS
Degrees if compatibility between vendors and the key differences
All participants will receive a free copy of the “Oracle Compatible Developer’s Guide”. This 336+ page guide provides the steps needed to build powerful new applications that are compatible with Oracle. Available only from EnterpriseDB.
