Foil 13 Other commercial Web-Database products and companies

From Master Set of Foils for 1996 Session of CPS615 NHSE Review Argonne -- September 30 97. by Geoffrey C. Fox, Wojtek Furmanski


MOREplus is one of many products in the area of Web-Database interfaces.
It was naturally selected by NHSE for evaluation due to similarity of end-user interfaces in RIB and MOREplus but Web-Database interface to the current RIB can be constructed using many other commercial products.
On-line Database Magazine lists at http://www.dbmsmag.com/buyguide.html some 900 companies/products in the area of Web/Database interfaces!
We believe one could easily find many more affordable products than MOREplus.
We also note that RDBMS systems become truly affordable these days:
  • For example NT version of Oracle8, including Context Search Engine and lots of other advanced features costs now only $1,500.
