Ingres – Business Critical Acknowledgement

“The use of open-source DBMSs for mission-critical applications carries far more risk — the exception is Ingres. Ingres has been available for over 25 years and has a broad base of customers with mission-critical

applications today. Issues of scalability, reliability and maturity are not a problem for the Ingres DBMS.”

Gartner – Cost Optimisation of Open Source DBMSs May 2009

“In the RDBMS market, open source software is being adopted in two areas: open source RDBMSs and the open source OS Linux as a platform on which to run an RDBMS”… Linux as an RDBMS platform is expected

to see growth of approximately 20% in 2009,

“…Ingres is the only one of the open source RDBMSs that has functionality that make high availability and disaster recovery possible”

“Gartner - How Open Source Impacts the RDBMS Jan 2009”
