it may be worth noting that Universe supports file
dictionary items that are in the same format as those used in most other
databases in the multivalue family.
Unidata's dictionary items are considerably different.
For what it's worth, several years ago we migrated from an old Ultimate

Fundamentally the two databases deliver the same thing, we may each have
personal preferences either way but they will both very competently run your
application on Windows, Unix or Linux up to several thousand users.
Where the choice does make a difference is in some of the more complex
maint whereas the D3's (mostly all
W2K) are easily maintained with the IT guys using traditional W2K skills.

This is more like a marking question. I go through the introductions of

The first biggest difference (in my opinion) is in the internal storage of
data. UniData stores all the keys for a group of records together, with
pointers to the data records within each group. UniVerse stores key+record
key+record key+record... in a linked list.
The second biggest
More information, I have been working with Unidata for more than 5 years. I
saw some people here discussed whether Undiata supports Unicode
