Ingres and Enterprise Acceptance

12/01/05 | by Clarise Z. Doval Santos [mail] | Categories: Computers and Internet, Open Source, software, technology, Database

Ingres is one of the early relational databases. For those who have been working on relational databases for some time, Ingres has a reputation for being a mature database. When Ingres became an Open Source database, it has made the choice for Open Source databases interesting.

Last November, Computer Associates International, Inc. and a private equity firm, Garnett & Helfrich Capital announced a partnership to divest CA’s Ingres open source database unit into an independent corporate entity, Ingres Corporation.

Ingres Corporation also announced its Management Team including the addition of former Veritas Software executives.

Will Ingres be a key force in enabling the enterprise acceptance of Open Source Databases?

Ingres will be presenting in the Software Showcase at Software 2006 (http://www.sandhill.com/conferences/sw2006_swshowcase.php) tomorrow (Tuesday, 4/4/06, 11a+). I'll be blogging their presentation so maybe there will be some clues there that will help answer this question. These other open source companies are also presenting: Zimbra, CollabNet, Compiere, and Digium.
