Database concepts

As in Informix®, a SAP® ASE engine can manage multiple database entities. When creating a database object such as a table, SAPASE allows you to use the same object name in different databases.

Tip: If you have several Informix database entities, migrating from the Informix database to another database it is a good opportunity to centralize all tables in a single database. To avoid conflicts with table names, use a prefix when needed.
