Extend Your Horizons

N o matter what industry you're in, chances are your business--and the information technology upon which it runs--is being transformed by changing consumer requirements, new technological advances, and the emergence of new markets and opportunities. To stay ahead of the curve, you need to be fast on your feet, forward-thinking, and ready to seize opportunities whenever and wherever they arise. That's the focus of the 1996 Informix Worldwide User Conference & Exhibition and its theme, "Extend Your Horizons." The conference is being held this year on July 9-12 in Chicago, Illinois.







At this year's event, we'll be highlighting many new and exciting opportunities in the world of information management.

For example, you'll learn about new products and partnerships that extend Informix's industry-leading relational database with the ability to store and manage "non-traditional" types of data--like voice, video, digital images, faxes, other electronic documents, and more.

You'll discover how to extend your business-critical information systems to take advantage of the newest generation of computer platforms--like massively parallel processing, 64-bit, or Windows NT TM hardware systems.

You'll even explore how Informix technology is being used to extend the notion of client/server via technological opportunities such as application partitioning, mobile computing, the Internet, smart cards, and more.

And, of course, you'll learn more about Informix's Dynamic Scalable Architecture (TM) and its ability to extend the realm of large information systems from today's big databases that typically range in the hundreds of gigabytes to tomorrow's multiple terabyte-sized systems.

So don't miss this once-a-year opportunity to meet in a group setting with Informix and our customers, partners, and professional colleagues. You'll gain valuable information about Informix's products, programs, services, and strategic direction. And, at the same time, you'll participate in a unique forum to interact and exchange ideas and information in an informal setting.
