Laura, I believe Joe Chelston posted the have you ever heard of message, not mrparkland. I assume Kyle Stetson was supposed to be a U2 developer/administrator, but for some reason Joe suspects that it was only an alias, which is what led to the question. :) Ron -Original Message- From:

Thanks Dave for providing a first name. Is your name Dave Parkland? Are you willing to provide the name of your company? I think Laura mistook you as the OP for this post. I'm with Laura in thinking that in a forum like this, anonymity is not as professional nor as effective (or even comforting

[U2] Opinions on Cache

2011-04-09 Thread Don Verhagen
Group, I want to ask if anyone has had any experience with Cache and also has experience with U2 and SQL. I have been out of the MV (U2) since then of 2008, currently .NET (C#) and MSSQL. I have a large MV application written in SB and Unidata that I would like to re-develop. The basic roundup:

Hi Don -- Yes, I have experience with UniData, SQL and SQL DBMS's, and I now work in Cache' However, I have only a very tiny bit of experience with SB and none with a conversion from SB+UniData to Cache'. Certainly I have a deep fondness for U2, but I had to make a good business decision a couple

OK, now I'm not finding the ones I thought were on this channel, so search youtube for MultiValue and you will see both a little 6 minute-ish video and a 4-part video related to Cache for MV developers. --dawn On Sat, Apr 9, 2011 at 10:57 AM, Dawn Wolthuis dw...@tincat-group.comwrote: Hi Don --

From: Don Verhagen I want to ask if anyone has had any experience with Cache and also has experience with U2 and SQL. I don't sell Caché and I don't get any kind of compensation for saying something nice about them, but I will anyway. ;) Here is a summary in my blog from 4 years ago:

With any platform change you have to ask what you are getting and what you are losing compared with where you are. If you want to evolve the application then your only option is to stay with U2 because that is the only platform that SB will run on. OK, there was an attempt to emulate SB on

From my observations, I don't quite agree on Tony's summation of Cache vs U2. Cache has the same burden as U2 in that they came from mumps where U2 came from Pick. The biggest difference between Cache and U2 is marketing where Cache takes on RDBMS and U2 is apologetic for being Pick, but that

Comments within. Again, I am a U2 fan, so I am trying to do a comparison, not a sales job, although I'm guessing it might sound a bit like Cache evangelism. I am pragmatic about my choices, so even if I want to like a more pure MultiValue platform (I started my career on a Pr1me computer, prior to

I am not familiar with UniData and I am aware that UniVerse has had better SQL support than uniData. I have found that UniVerse SQL performs well. The UniVerse query engine is used by both SQL and retrieve, where they pass the query over to an optimizer engine. One thing that has been a bit
