Informix Software, Inc. Her responsibilities include implementing
marketing strategies as well as providing solutions to product and
strategic issues concerning Linux”. Interview by Marjorie
Richardson.

“Our users demanded the marriage of the efficient, feature-rich,
“stealth” Linux operating system and the scalability, performance
and extensibility of Informix database options. We delivered our
first Linux products, INFORMIX-SE and INFORMIX-ESQL/C, in July at
the Informix Worldwide User Conference. The response has been
overwhelming”. — Janet Smith
