Solomon Stands the Test of Time Despite Changing Masters Part Three: Product Differentiators ( Pages)
by P.J. Jakovljevic
Sep 5, 2003 Abstract : Of all the MBS' products, Solomon is apparently the purest in terms of a standard Microsoft technology stack, and without any proprietary additions.

Solomon IV has consequently been very competitive in speed of implementation, feasibility of customization, total cost of ownership (TCO), and price/performance ratio.

Oracle Loses Again ( Pages)
by M. Reed
Jan 20, 2000 Abstract : SAP AG has chosen SQL Server 7.0 as its strategic database for the Windows platform.
