IBM Informix

IBM Informix Dynamic Server (IDS) provides blazing online transaction processing (OLTP) performance, legendary reliability, and nearly hands-free administration to businesses of all sizes.  IDS offers significant improvements in availability, manageability, security and performance.
Highlights:

    • Solid, secure and reliable support for on demand environments.
    • Enhanced performance, availability, and database administrator and programmer productivity.
    • Reduced deployment and management costs. Customize the data server footprint with the Deployment Wizard and the SQL API and scheduler which make it easier to automate maintenance activities.
    • The GUI-based OpenAdmin Tool for IDS provides a global view of remote servers, with flexible analysis and drill-down to the query level.
    • High security for compliance with government regulations.
    • Lower total cost of ownership (TCO) - Many typical database administrator operations are self-managed by the IDS database, making it nearly hands-free. Administration activities can also be controlled within an application via the SQL API. Typically, IDS customers report using one-third or less of the staff needed to manage competitors' products.
    • Shortened development cycles due to rapid deployment capabilities and choice of application development environments and languages.
    • Flexible choices for business continuity with replication choices and the Continuous Availability Feature for shared disk cluster solutions, consequently eliminating the reliance on a "one-size-fits-all" solution.
    • Continuous availability with HDR, RSS, etc.

    Success Stories

    “With IDS, we can run our operation with just one part-time DBA. If we had chosen Oracle, we estimate that we would need two full-time DBAs. The whole experience with IDS is fabulous.”

    - Jeff Edelstein, VP Information Technology, Lazare Kaplan International Inc.

    “By moving from Sybase to IDS, we dramatically reduced DBA support costs and realized an equally dramatic increase in reliability of one of our major systems supporting our national address and phone number directory.”

    -Geoff Poole, Lead Informix Database Administrator, Verizon
