Multinational Requirements study (May 92 - Aug 92): IT architecture

'In terms of the international communications side of things we've use ISDN connections with LAN manager and its been absolutely superb, just so impressive. We can ... [run] off the North of England database, the development database, by just clicking on a few things we can point it at the New York database and you won't notice much of a difference ... and then go and put it at the Dutch database and again it is a difference but it's not that noticeable, and I never expected to get that kind of a response time. And in fact running the application against the Dutch database is faster than running it against the London database because you've got your own ISDN line to Holland you see whereas the line down to London is a mega stream line which we're sharing with other people. I mean it's phenomenally powerful that.'
