INFORMIX-OnLine XPS: A Dynamically Scalable RDBMS for Open Parallel Platforms

Summary: Extends Informix’s Dynamic Scalable Architecture from SMPs to massively parallel clusters, using partitioned data/control/execution and hash-based parallelism for linear DSS and OLTP scalability. Adds dynamic resource management, coserver failover, access restoration, and single-image administration. (summarized by gpt-5.6-luna on Jul 24 2026)
