Ingres (database)

Ingres Database ( ing-GRESS) is a proprietary SQL relational database management system intended to support large commercial and government applications.

Actian Corporation, which announced April 2018 that it is being acquired by HCL Technologies, controls the development of Ingres and makes certified binaries available for download, as well as providing worldwide support. There was an open source release of Ingres but it is no longer available for download from Actian. However, there is a version of the sourcecode still available on GitHub.

In its early years, Ingres was an important milestone in the history of database development. Ingres began as a research project at UC Berkeley, starting in the early 1970s and ending in 1985. During this time Ingres remained largely similar to IBM's seminal System R in concept; it differed in more permissive licensing of source code, in being based largely on DEC machines, both under UNIX and VAX/VMS, and in providing QUEL as a query language instead of SQL. QUEL was considered at the time to run truer to Edgar F. Codd's relational algebra (especially concerning composability), but SQL was easier to parse and less intimidating for those without a formal background in mathematics.

When ANSI preferred SQL over QUEL as part of the 1986 SQL standard (SQL-86), Ingres became less competitive against rival products such as Oracle until future Ingres versions also provided SQL. Many companies spun off of the original Ingres technology, including Actian itself, originally known as Relational Technology Inc., and the NonStop SQL database originally developed by Tandem Computers but now offered by Hewlett Packard Enterprise.

2. In 1814, the French artist Jean–Auguste–Dominique Ingres painted La Fornarina sitting on the artist‘s knee.

3. Once that image had been engraved, published and distributed all over France and the Napoleonic Empire, David, Vernet and Ingres had little option but to rework it.

4. An image is reflected by a concave mirror and projected on to a surface where it can be directly copied by the artist; many painters, including the incomparable Ingres, have long used it to draw people quickly and with precision.

5. Yet with all the movement between fact and myth, past and present and propaganda and reportage, it is almost a relief to let David get lost in the shuffle of the great, universally adored, more manageable 1'th–century French painters who followed him, starting with his student Ingres.
