Reagola was represented in an International Informix DBA competition hosted by Advanced Data Tools. Tien Cheng, Reagola's Informix "Champ", took part.
More than 60 participants from all over the world gave it their best shot in the sixth annual Fastest Informix DBA Contest that was announced in July 2013
The challenge was to see how many transactions per minute could be achieved when combining online transaction processing (OLTP) with batch processing applications.
The winning database administrator (DBA) would be the contestant who achieved the most transactions per minute in the OLTP benchmark and at the same time ran a batch billing job that generated the most bills in a 10-minute run.
The grand prize winner, Tien-Ming Cheng from Cape Town, South Africa, was the Fastest Informix DBA overall. In addition to taking top honours in the batch application, he was also the newest and youngest Informix DBA in the contest.
