infx consists of a series of easy to use services that are accessed via a command line interface, or a browser interface. 

infx has a service for every Informix database maintenance action, including backup, restore, space management, and more.

Configuration files and a series of options allow you to tailor the infx services for your environment.

Just set it, and forget it. 

monitoring

There is a wealth of information available about a running Informix server, and infx makes accessing this a breeze. 

Built in is a comprehensive onstat and sysmaster data parsing library which extracts information about user sessions, tables, memory, CPUs and a whole lot more.

Couple this to a versatile template system, and you have simple but powerful access to this internal information.

management

infx has dashboards for monitoring and maintenance of Informix via a browser. These dashboards provide detailed information about your databases, and allow easy access to all the infx services.
