Looking for some general guidance and specific experiences anyone might have in using Inprise (Borland)'s Interbase in an extranet environment versus something like Microsoft SqlServer or Oracle. The extranet equipment and VPN client are all from Nortel and the class of users range from powerful desktops over high speed wan at remote offices to powerful notebooks on dsl at homes to lightweight notebooks on modem connections at hotel rooms. The applications are pure client/server non web. Any guidance, commentary, or experience regarding performance to help select the database will be appreciated.
