Re: 7.4?

How about a feature as in Informix where you could specify a database_id
where then
thru a realm.conf file you map that id to a hostname:databasename

then saying

database.schema.table mapps to    hostname.database.schema.table

This way the applications can do a bit HA or distributed DB...
