Computer Associates International on Monday kicked off its entry into open-source software with the release of its Ingres r3 database.

The company said that Ingres r3 for Linux and Windows is available under an open-source license called CA Trusted Open Source License. The license allows others to view the source code of the database, download the software for free, and incorporate it into other software bundles that are licensed under CA's open-source license.
Digital agenda

In conjunction with the release of Ingres r3, CA launched four paid support offerings around the database that offer legal indemnification. Customers will pay for ongoing support services, rather than a commercial software license, to use the database.

Has anyone used the Ingres database before? How does it match up to MS SQL and MySQL?

Ingres is yet another meaty database server - similar to Oracle and MS SQL, should kick the pants off MYSQL. Fwiw you will have to do all your own tuning, I understand - it's not like MSSQL which is self-tuning
