Informix 4GL was developed in 1985 by Chris Moloney and Roy Harrington of Informix Corporation, a Silicon Valley based relational database pioneer in the open systems market place.

Informix 4GL comprises non-procedural (‘fourth generation’) features for database access, reports and forms-based user interaction, making it ideally suited for business applications. It has enabled the rapid development of very sophisticated mission critical business logic and as a result, is widely deployed in many of the world’s largest corporations. It is still used today by over half of Informix’s customers – that’s over 4 million users still in production.
