Windows development, HP-UX deployment

[Victor Geere]

I found the following paragraph on the Cognos web site:

============================================
>From within the Axiant IDE developers can build and deploy their 
applications to MPE/iX, HP-UX or Windows 2000/NT servers running 
either PowerHouse 4GL or PowerHouse Web-providing Web browser, 
Windows client or terminal access to those applications with 
efficient native access to HP IMAGE, ALLBASE/SQL, KSAM, MPE, 
C-ISAM, Oracle, Sybase and Microsoft SQL Server data.
============================================
I would like to have a Powerhouse IDE that I can use on 
my laptop at night and deploy on HP-UX PH 4GL/Web in the morning.  
Is this it or am I missing something?  

What advantages does Axiant have over Powerhouse for Windows in this scenario?  
Do I have to be connected to HP-UX to use C-ISAM as a database, 
or do I have to use, say, MS-SQL to develop in Windows and point 
the application to the C-ISAM dictionary when deploying on HP-UX?

Better yet, can I develop Allbase/SQL and C-ISAM applications on 
Axiant and deploy this on HP-UX?
