Would anyone have access to IBM budget numbers for AIX development?
I dont think the comparisons are valid. I assume AIX is complete
feature wise. All the enhancements are being done with frameworks,
languages, database, security and networking components which are
bolted onto the base AIX OS.
IBM i is different. Components that are layered on top of other OSes
are integrated into IBM i. The 10 char object name limit is a
function of the base OS. ILE service programs are part of the base OS
- I think they need to be enhanced so RPG programmers dont have to
code both PR and PI declaration of procedures.
maybe the disagreement here is that big picture execs in IBM see that
AIX has fewer features than IBM i, yet AIX outsells i. The thinking
might be that an OS should not have all the features that IBM i has.
So there is no reason to add more to it.
