Re: ADS vs PG

German healthcare business is not the only one in the world, and certainly not the prevailing one. I don't believe its the same situation in all businesses and all countries in the world. How come that your healthcare customers use your application when it is written in an old-fashioned language whi...

Re: ADS vs PG

Alaska upsizing process has nothing to do with the execution of an PGDBE application. So, improvements in upsizing has no influence to PGDBE itself, and Roger's test results are still valid and are very important measure for PGDBE performance. They cannot be disregarded.

Re: ADS vs PG

As it is known, Alaska PGDBE is ISAM emulation which uses 5-7 extra columns per each table to maintain this emulation, and an extra time for updating these columns in each database operation.
