"We selected Informix to enable us to put together a large-scale data
warehouse that would provide our customers with smarter satellite
navigation and shorter journeys. We needed to manage data from up to
100,000 vehicles about driving speeds on 3.5 million road segments at all
times of day -- this was a huge data challenge, and one that was likely to
increase," said Jon Tasker, Project Manager at leading intelligent driving
services provider, Trafficmaster, UK. "In our benchmarking process,
Informix came out above all other leading solutions for its performance,
scalability and reliability."
"As one of the leading providers of highly flexible and modular software
solutions for the financial sector, we noticed that our customer base
developed an increased demand for high availability and security in
addition to more complex legal compliance requirements. With IDS 11.5,
embedded into our banking software BANCOS, we now have the right
foundation to be able to react in a short amount of time and with reduced
total cost of owner****p to increased customer demand," says Erik Endriss,
CEO of G&H Bankensoftware AG in Berlin, Germany.
"Bell Micro has seen a great increase of interest in and adoption of IDS,"
said Duncan Crabbe, Division Manager for IBM Software at Bell Micro.
"IBM's clear vision for Informix has created a great op****tunity for
independent software vendors (ISVs) to see the value IBM can bring to
their businesses. We would urge ISVs who seek a competitive advantage
through reduced TCO for both themselves and their customers to take a
serious look at IDS 11.5. Bell Micro is here to help them through that
evaluation."
"Jenzabar is very impressed with the new features that IBM has introduced
in IDS 11.5. The high-availability enhancements will enable our customers
in the higher education market to more easily provide 24/7 service to
their constituents," said Ben Bassett, VP, Software & Services, Jenzabar,
Inc. "We are especially pleased with the commitment that IBM has
demonstrated to the IDS product line, with a series of releases that have
added real value to the product -- which in turn increases our
satisfaction with both the product line and our IBM partner****p."
Apparently, the Trafficmaster thing is pretty cool ...

panic you turned to the Labour Party. They promised you order, they
promised you peace, and all they demanded in return was your silent,
obedient consent."
