Can anyone suggest an inexpensive, fast database engine for a real time application on the UNIX platform??? I have been developing a high call-traffic voice mail system under OS/2 using Btrieve as my database engine. Btrieve is much faster than any of the high-end SQL engines I have tried running on the same platform. It provides solid access control, and best of all, there are no distribution royalties. I must now port my application to a UNIX environment, and I have not been able to identify a sutible database engine. Btrieve doesn't run on UNIX. A robust ISAM system would be fine, preferrably without per-process license fees (I will be handling 48 simultaneous calls, and I don't want to pay a seat license for 48 caller processes). Any ideas what I should use??? RSVP email please. thanks, jjs ________________________________________________________ Joseph J.
