Re: k-neighbourhood search in databases

hello ...

i have put some research into that some time ago and as far as i have seen there is a 99% chance that no other database can do it the way we do it. it seems nobody comes even close to it (especially not in the flexibility-arena).

oracle: disgusting workaround ...

db2: disgusting workaround (no server side code it seems)

sybase: disgusting workaround (no serverside code it seems)

microsoft: there seems to be something coming out (or just out) but i have not seen anything working yet.

regards,

hans
