We're considering switching to oracle from informix sql for application
developement.  Is anyone familiar with both of these products and willing
to give some advice pro/con?  In particular, we're talking about the
complete oracle kit vs. informix sql (no 4gl or esql) under xenix v for
286.  What differences can we exect in speed of developement, features
available or missing?
