Hello everyone, We’ve noticed that a number of commercial users of Haskell, and our own clients, have complained about the quality of Haskell bindings to the Microsoft SQL Server database.
Would any Haskell-using companies be willing to come together to fund FP Complete to work on a polished, high-quality and performant SQL Server binding which we would open source? We’ve already done some work in this area, I’ve personally written a (unpublished) binding to the freetds C library from Haskell which supports connecting directly to SQL Server and even Microsoft Azure services from Linux. Some goals might be: - Support streaming (e.g. via conduit). - Support multiple client platforms (Linux, OS X, Windows). - Satisfy a level of efficiency. - Come with a comprehensive test suite for stability. Please let us know on this thread, or [email protected] directly if you’d be interested in contributing to such an initiative.
