I am using a mixed plataform just like yours. A Microsoft SQL 7 database
server running under win2k and a Resin servlet container
(www.caucho.com) running under Solaris 8 intel.
a) If I have enough money would start with Oracle 8 on a unix box.
If I coud use a database with less scalability would pick
Sybase SQL Anywhere on a unix box.
b) The only problem with this setup: you need a good jdbc driver.
I am using ashna's JTurbo and it performs pretty well. Do not waste
your time looking for freeware jdbc 2.0 drivers for MS SQL. There are
none them. FreeTDS works but is a jdbc 1.0 implementation.
Obviously Microsoft does not ship a jdbc driver with MS SQL. In fact
they
never even heard about java outside a coffee machine.
c) Be careful with the windows box. It is not reliable and its network
security is really thin. Try to keep it as far away as possible from
the web.
