We are doing a conversion from HP3000 to an Intel based system
running Unix & will need an RDMBS. The DB will function as a data
server for our core of COBOL programs. I am not a database guy
but am trying to research this issue & determine whether PostgreSQL
will satisfy our needs & get at least some idea of how it might work.
It seems that the best way for COBOL to communicate with the DB
would be embedded code but it does not appear that PSQL supports this.
Though this will not be a browser based system, ODBC probably would
work. Would this be as fast as embedded code using Oracle, DB2 or???

Thanks for any insight you may be able to provide.
