Hi SQL/MED developers,<br /><br /> Our company has just finished development of a database extension for Informix that
providestabular access to various types of structured files (NetCDF and HDF5, with more types to come). We would like
toport this logic to run on PostgreSQL, since many of our potential customers use PostgreSQL.<br /><br /> On Informix,
wewere able to take advantage of the VTI (Virtual Table Interface) feature to support "table" scans and indexing. (See
<aeudora="autourl" href="http://www.ibm.com/developerworks/data/zones/informix/library/techarticle/db_vti.html">
http://www.ibm.com/developerworks/data/zones/informix/library/techarticle/db_vti.html</a>.) Do you have any idea of how
longit will be before SQL/MED on PostgreSQL will be available, and perhaps how similar it will be to Informix VTI?<br
/><br/> Thanks,<br /> Eric.<br /><p> ********************************************** <br /> Eric Davies, M.Sc. <br />
