The two new relational database products, VAX
Rdb/VMS and VAX Rdb/ELN, were implemented in a common architecture,
spanning the full range of VAX processors -- from the MicroVAX
I to the VAX-11/785. |

|
|
 |
|
CPU cycle time in the VAX-11/785 was 133ns,
50% faster than the 200ns cycle time of the VAX-11/780. The
accelerated cycle time allowed all CPU operations to run up
to 50% faster, resulting in higher throughput, faster response
time and the ability to support more users. |

The VAX 8600, shown here during assembly, offered
up to 4.2 times the performance of the industry standard VAX-11/780
and increased I/O capacity, while maintaining I/O subsystem
compatibility with the VAX-11/780 and the 11/785 Synchronous
Backplane Interconnect (SBI). The VAX 8600 was the first VAX
implementation in ECL technology and the first to include macropipelining. |

The VAXstation I was the first in a new family
of MicroVAX-based technical workstations. It was a powerful,
single-user computing system supporting the professional user,
sold in packaged form. |

ULTRIX-32 was an interactive, timesharing operating
system derived from VM/UNIX Version 4.2BSD developed at the
University of California at Berkeley. ULTRIX-32 combined all
the features of 4.2BSD with enhancements for servicablitiy,
documentation and the ability to tailor the kernel without sources. |
