Yes, but unfortunately not helpful. We’ve been running ARS over Sybase for 15 years (when we bought it originally a Sybase license was bundled with ARS). We also have all home-grown applications which rely on case insensitivity which we get with Sybase and which we would have to rewrite if we made the segue to Oracle.
I live in a predominantly Linux-variant shop and would LOVE it if AIX was not in the support picture for this particular system – would give me more flexibility as to where it could be hosted.

Oracle runs there too, on a different VM. Honest.
