texte = Sorry list ... too fast on the 'send' button without looking at the to.The general concept of having more than one WebDNA server, e.g., in a webfarm configuration hitting a common WebDNA database, has been talked aboutbefore, and is an appealing configuration for obvious reasons. With thecurrent product, clearly people have constructed mechanisms usingTCPConnect/TCPSend, or by using an external database such as SQL Server thatmultiple web servers could hit via ODBC. While the external DB approach issimple, it costs more money in additional product licenses.We have had internal discussions in the past about how to enable this typeof configuration without the need for an external database product. Whilehaven't dismissed this as a future need, much of what we've been adding to5.0 is 'plumbing' that we knew we can use in the future to help make thismuch easier to do, i.e., the new 'function' contexts and XML Web Servicesfeatures can allow development of templates that form a remotable DatabaseServer interface that is callable from multiple Web Servers ... but we hadto build the drive train first. So, for now all I can say is that itremains on our radar screen, and we will discuss this further internally onhow to utilize 5.0 features to accomplish this in a way that is more robustthan the current means of using TCPConnect/TCPSend ... but it will be after5.0.Phil B.-------------------------------------------------------------This message is sent to you because you are subscribed to the mailing list
