Title:
FoxPro and Informix- Telecom billing systems
Hello guys,
I have some questions on regards of Informix and FoxPro.
Currently I am in an evaluation-project for a midsize telecom company, and
they have this SCO-Unix based Informix database, which at the present stage on
one of its main table contains close to 40million rows , extracting this data is kind of a pain in the behind , since they have an "Access" billing-reconciliation system.. arghhh!!.
Extracting the monthly data is a pain since the files are over 1/2 gig in size and I have to export them into tables on Access.
I have begun some minor process on Foxpro to help me on the daily data process, but still I have to manage with the "Access" thing.
Questions:
1)There must be a better way to do this, and if you have experience this in
the past, I would like to enquire in some alternatives in how to automate the process of extracting data.
2)For Telecoms, I have worked with SQL server backends for their billing systems , Do you guys know of any other systems that runs in Oracle?
thanks for your comments
