Thanks very much everyone. This has been very helpful to us. We have
realized very quickly that we were going down the wrong path in trying
to figure out the right database for our customers upfront. Our client
apps work with the databases via genreic dbms connectivity apis and
sql and, we can easily allow our apps to pick either one of the
datasources (don't mind the extra development effort on the oracle and
db2 sql).
The ultimate choice of the DBMS platform will perhaps be best made by
our customers (who will have a much better understanding of their dbms
TCO based on existing infrastructure).
