Oracle & Informix connectivity/coexisting issues question

Currently, I am running Informix Online DSA v7.21 on HPUX10.10 and soon migrating to v7.22
HPUX10.20. Our applications are developed in PowerBuilder v5 and MicroFocus Cobol v10.
I am looking into installing Oracle for the first time on the same HP server or maybe a separate
server.
1. When Oracle and Informix rdbms are both online, what is the technique/configuration/software
and additional hardware if any needed to connect to both from the same applications running on
NT and Unix?
2. Is this a simple or complex environment to implement, integrate, and maintain?
3. What troubles or issues are typically encountered? 4. Does Informix or Oracle provide assists for database access in a mixed database environment?
5. Where can I find a good reference guides/sources on this topic? 6. Any added helpful comments are appreciated. Thanks for your interest and help. Received on Mon Feb 17 1997 - 00:00:00 CST
