Ok, here goes. Just a webby as I am called by some of my friends looking
for a little advice.
I work for an advertising agency and I handle ALL of their clients sites.
We have two that since I have come aboard have really taken off. Like over
a million users a month taken off. Now my boss is asking me to look into
getting us setup with a dedicated server. We have been using a company for
all of our shared hosting and we have been quite happy with them. Here is
my question.
What are the do's and don'ts when setting up a dedicated server for the
first time. It will have two fairly heavy use sites both done in CF, by me,
so I know what I am getting there. And a few other not so heavy use sites,
also done in CF for the most part. Right now we are also just using Access
for the back end and it's been working ok, a little slow at times, but not
to bad. We are looking to upsizing to SQL Server 7 on an NT box but I know
nothing about SQL server. With Access I have a GUI to build tables, etc.
Is there anything like that for SQL Server. What do any of you recommend.
I am fairly certain that we are going to go with an NT box with CF 4.5.1 on
it and depending on what I can find out and learn probably SQL Server on the
same box until we can afford a second box. Any advice to making this as
smooth as possible is great appreciated.
TIA!!!
