Is Ingres leading an open source 'apps stack'?
,----[ Quote
| With the announcement of an ECM appliance barely a year after its declaration
| of an integrated business intelligence (BI) solution, open source database
| vendor Ingres appears to be creating, through partnerships, an
| alternative 'one-stop shop' for enterprise applications. While the likes of
| IBM and Oracle may not have to worry yet, given these cost-conscious times,
| Microsoft - whose price-point is closest to open source - and smaller ISVs
| need to take note.

Ingres Attempts to Break up Database Market with Icebreaker
,----[ Quote ]
| Question: Why did Ingres go with rPath's Linux distribution?
|
| Lyman: This seems to be a case where rPath made sense because of
| its experience in providing a lean Linux suited for integration
| with other software to make an appliance. rPath specializes in
| purpose-built versions of Linux for appliances, and VMware also
| offers an appliance that is a combination of rPath Linux and
| SugarCRM, for instance.
