Does not meet WP:GNG and WP:NCORP, all coverage is press releases by the company itself and release notes of their own products hosted on their own site. Anton.bersh (talk) 21:45, 18 February 2022 (UTC)

- Delete I was only able to find mentions of this company's technology, but nothing substantive. Lamona (talk) 00:19, 20 February 2022 (UTC)
- Keep. Pioneer in client-server databases and 4GL GUI development in the late 1980s and early 1990s. Since they pre-date the internet, references will come from old fashioned on-paper research. -- Mikeblas (talk) 17:52, 23 February 2022 (UTC)

- Keep. Gupta was a big name in databases. Scans of Computerworld and Infoworld issues visible in Google Books show that the company and its products were extensively covered in that era. StarryGrandma (talk) 16:45, 12 March 2022 (UTC)
- Keep This company was covered (usually under Centura Software Corp.) and profiled by various analyst groups such as Gartner, Forrester, Bloor, etc. For example, here's a link to a report from Bloor, here's another recent report - there's lots of reports but mostly under the name Centura. In my opinion, this topic should really be Centura Software and Gupta redirected there. HighKing++ 17:15, 15 March 2022 (UTC)
