Having only recently found BOB, and become a user of BO, I was curious as to what combinations of operating systems and databases people use.
My thinking goes along the line of…if a particular combination has a smaller number of users, then issues/bugs can take time to surface.
Whereas a popular combination gets more testing.
Before the poll proper, I would like some suggestions as how to choose the combinations for people to vote on. We need enough to make sense, but not to many to confuse, or put people off.
I see there being various options for o/s, including but not limited to…
Unix (do we include all Solaris, AIX etc together)
W2k
Citrix or TS
Then for databases there is…
Oracle, SQL …
Or if someone knows the how many BO systems are out there in various combinations, then speak up.
P.S our company uses Citrix and MS SQL 2000
P.P.S My feeling is to ignore what version of BO software people have, as it only complicates things…everyone has to eventually upgrade to the latest version at some stage.
