Hi all,

We're considering rehosting an HP3000, TurboIMAGE application written in
Powerhouse to Solaris and Oracle; consequently we're wondering to what
extent Powerhouse hides the underlying database technology from the
programmer.

Have any of you ever rehosted a Powerhouse application from MPE/Image to
another platform running an RDBMS?  Or from Image to Allbase?  What kind
of effort, if any, was involved in re-writing the application to use the
RDBMS?

Alternatively, have any of you ever written a Powerhouse application
which used a relational database rather than Image?  Did you have to do
anything different because of the different database technology?

Thanks in advance.

Evan
