,----[ Quote ]
| Ingres for one has just announced a project with VectorWise, a spin off from
| the database research team at Centrum Wiskunde & Informatica of Amsterdam, a
| research institute in mathematics and computer science. With backing from
| Intel, Ingres and VectorWise are attempting to build a database engine that
| derives an increased quotient of its power from modern hardware processor and
| storage performance.

Ingres "code sprint" yields new features
,----[ Quote ]
| Among the new features created at the event were a compressed backup option
| to save space when archiving databases, an enforced logging system for
| databases and the ability to suspend logging when copying a database, a
| command line history for the Ingres SQL utility and improved Soundex routines
| for better matching. Emma McGratten of Ingres, who organised the sprint
| said "It's a testament to the open source community when we can get together
| and make improvements on features and programs that are being used every day,
| by the people who depend on them".
