I know that Jody has some expertise on this where he rolled his own remote data mirror. In my case, I just want my apps to phone home via the magic of the internet. I’d like to collect usage data to see what areas and features are used. I imagine this data would be collected in local tables and synced to another 4D database every night. In addition, I suppose licenses for vertical market apps could be verified or could be extended or validated after payments for continued service is satisfied. So, I have a lot of ideas on what could be measured. I’m not sure how best to get that data over the internet to another database. I assume this type of data could be sent via http without special port forwarding on corporate routers. Thoughts? How does your app phone home? And do you like what it has to say? :)
