UniVerse is already 64-bit on AIX and HP-UX and have been for quite a while. We plan on Windows 64-bit being out later this year (people are already beta testing it) and are working on Linux and Solaris.
For most people, unless you are a really big system, you don't really get much benefit from being 64-bit due to the database architecture which allows you to bypass many of the reasons other databases may be more easily restricted by being 32-bit only.

Hi Dan, When will Universe be 64-bit? This year, next year, never. I am not after specific dates, but is it on the project lifeline?

While CentOS is effectively RHEL, and generally speaking, runs fine, there is always the chance that a difference is introduced (say an environment difference on the machine that compiled the source) that could adversely support UniVerse. CentOS 32-bit will be easier for you as our RHEL port is currently 32-bit. CentOS is not a Rocket supported OS. Rocket may require you to reproduce a reported issue on a supported platform. As a word of caution, we commonly work with OS providers (and sometimes hardware providers) to determine the root cause of an issue. With RHEL support, we have someone to work with, with CentOS we do not.
