I have a HP Proliant ML350 with 2x80G HD (admitably bit of an overkill for my needs) which I am using as a file server for an office comprising of about 10 PC’s. Currently the OS is Fedora 4. I have firebird database running as the backend of a point of sale software.

Today I created a small VS 2005 demo project in order to understand how to silently deploy and update an embedded Firebird database using ClickOnce technology. This helped me to gain a basic understanding of the key concepts. Tomorrow I intend to continue this work by considering some more advanced scenarios.

[ED…skiped some content]The idea behind this schema format is to make it possible to define a single database schema that can be used to create, alter and initialize databases in any number of RDBMS. For example currently MDB2_Schema supports MySQL, PostGreSQL, Oracle, SQLite, MS SQL Server, Interbase/Firebird.

Using the firebird/interbase client library correctly is one of the more challenging tasks and therefore great news for the OpenDBX project.

Well, those server boxes do run other applications so you don’t get CPUs sitting there doing nothing, but I still wonder which one will be more suitable — one single super-server with shared page cache pool that can only utilise one CPU core, or multiple classic server instances that have their own page cache. However we do have up to 160 concurrent connections to the database on some of our boxes. Not sure how Win2k3 will perform with this kind of process count. Damn! Wish we can deploy them onto Linux boxes.
