Vectorwise for small projects

Hello,
We're Ingres fans since ...16 years and your distributor in Belgium, Luxembourg, Nederland.
We also see VectorWise as a open door to make RDBM accessible to
smaller customers, like companies with 20 - 500 people, where "big"
databases systems were perceived as expensive dinosaurs.  Here, with
vectorwise and a subscription model, any company can profit from the DB
as a common fundation for most intelligent-to-be ITC systems. 
Therefore our quest since months: finding a development environment
that is productive and web-based, allowing any mix of cloud, hosted,
local resources and users. Delphi was such solution but is dying and
non-web, it seems that the only ones that are productive and have
critical mass are locked by MS, Oracle, etc.   We believe that if the
enormous market segment of smaller corporates can have a development
tool that is easy as Delphi, Windev, Approach, Oracle apex, more custom
apps can be developped and maintained, by many more smaller ISV, even
one-manned ones.  That market might jump in the Vectorwise train, the
added value of the blasting performance, pro support and fast
development add up in a complete no-brainer. 
A significant part of that market might go to the cloud, and the rest will depend on the development tool.
