There has been a press report that AT&T was marketing such, developed by Aregon in Britain, under the name X-TRA for use on the 3Bx machines. Does anyone know about that system, or any other commercial products for high-volume reliable transaction processing on Unix boxes? We are also faced with some subtle database problems involving client/ server architecture -- we'll post that query shortly. Please E-mail replies; I will post a summary of responses (if any!). Thanks. Charles Cohen @ Geac Computers ( utzoo!yetti!geac!charles )
