Question
I want to use Ingres for my startup and want to integrate it with .NET 2.0. I want to know how the integration works. the version 2006 is free or not.

Answer
Hello,

Normaly it works. Please have a look at Ingres official documentation here : http://docs.ingres.com/qs-windows/ConnectingtoIngresfromNET

Concerning Ingres 2006 and open source, there is 2 versions of Ingres 2006 : one named enterprise, the other one named community.

The enterprise one MUST be used with a SUPPORT CONTRACT.
The community one is free of charge, but without support (look for help from community).

Hope this clear and help you.

Regards,
