At one time Oracle and Informix were very close competitors, both had robust, reliable database products, derived firmly from the Unix camp.

 

Today Informix does have ODBC drivers, although they look a little harder than average to set up and configure.  See:

That said, it should act like any other ODBC compliant database, with the abiity to read and write via that connection.

Laserfiche is rarely, if ever, the limiting factor in integrations.  To phrase the question another way, "Does IBM Informix accept information passed to it by Laserfiche?

 

I don't have personal experience working with Informix, as is the case with most/all of Presales, but if it uses a SQL backend, then it shouldn't be a problem.  You may need to do some research on the product in terms of its ability to accept the calls that Laserfiche and the SDK make to it.

Hello Ahmed,

I would suggest making your own post here on Laserfiche Answers!  If you want to make sure your post gets plenty of visibility, just make your own post instead of adding a comment to another post and add as much detail as you can regarding the system configuration and the changes that took place when you started noticing the problem.

 

Good Luck!
