Migrate MySQL to Ingres

Jeffrey

2007-05-13, 6:59 pm

We have a moderately complex PHP web app collecting data from a MySQL
database. We've been offered a rather attractive proposition to build an
Ingres version (ie. same app, but collects data from an Ingres database).

Questions for experts like you:

1) Is this a reasonably straightforward migration in which we can
largely replace mysql_query with ingres_query, etc, or will it be more
complex than that?

2) Does Ingres compare reasonably well with MySQL in terms of
scalability and speed?

3) Any dangers I should be aware of?

I am trying to decide whether or not to go forward with this project.
Your advice is much appreciated!

Thanks,

Jeff
