Ingres offers solutions to answer these problems, from the Business Open Source DBMS (Ingres2006) over solutions for enterprise-wide transparent data access (Enterprise Access) to the highly-productive 4GL-IDE for building distributed, platform-independent and highly-dynamic applications and services (OpenROAD).
