Time to Migrate: IDS V7 to IDS V11
There hasn't been a better time to upgrade old IDS V7 installations to IDS V11. IDS V11 comes with a whole bunch of new functionality, enhancements and "under the hood" improvements that will certainly boost your transaction throughput as well as increase the availability of your data.
The commitment of IBM to IDS is serious and rock solid, no doubt about that. The german "IBM Informix Infobahn" event, having been held this week in three different locations (Munich, Frankfurt, Hamburg), demonstrated that IDS is an absolutely strategic data server for IBM. IBM invests a bulk of development resources to make IDS the absolutely first class data server for extreme OLTP and continuous availability.
IDS V11.5 contains even more cool technology on top of the rich functionality of IDS V11 which will make IDS the number one choice for high availability database clusters. There are only a few weeks left until IDS V11.5 will be officially announced and available. IDS V11.5 will be the perfect release for upgrading from IDS V7.
