摘      要：The call is out for software developers and information system managers to support the move to mission-critical client-server applications. These are the findings of a survey of 683 of those in attendance at the 1993 Database World and Client-Server World Show. Their responses reflected a multifaceted market-one that is driven by a universal desire for greater programming productivity-and showed that opportunities still abound for developers to seize with previously unthought-of products. As evidenced by the survey, database application development and client-server computing are centered in the vertically integrated industries, which supplied 52 percent of the attendees sampled. Software vendors and computer manufacturers which provide client-server products, made up only 15 percent of the respondents. Attendees were evenly distributed across small, mid-sized, and large organizations.
