Don't think of it as >being some lightweight, cut-down thing. Yup, I didn't think it was cut-down, just limited - like # of users. As for the 10GB limit - since the application is so small - I think it would take a client a long time - or tons and TONS of orders even to start reaching that limit. I suspect that by that time, we would already be working on the eventually of then using full MS SQL - or something like MySql. >You need to ask yourself some more questions for what you want from it >going forward. > Is it desktop only, browser only, or both? Actually - I did answer this in one of my previous replies - the one is response to Ed. But, to repeat here - my initial intentions are to make it for the Desktop. > If desktop is involved, do you care about cross-platform? Right now - No. But, that may change in the future. >Should it be available in the cloud? Or on-premises? Or both? >If in the cloud, will it be single or multi-tenant? Again - right now - I think only on-premises. >Do you want to charge based on usage or a one-off fee? The initial plan is to sell it as One-Off, w/annual maint. fee, and also sell it w/"add-ons" - i.e. additional fee per trading partner. _______________________________________________ Post Messages to: [email protected] Subscription Maintenance: http://leafe.com/mailman/listinfo/profox OT-free version of this list: http://leafe.com/mailman/listinfo/profoxtech Searchable Archive: http://leafe.com/archives/search/profox This message: http://leafe.com/archives/byMID/profox/289ea162f5642645b5cf64d624c66a140e260...@us-ny-mail-002.waitex.net ** All postings, unless explicitly stated otherwise, are the opinions of the author, and do not constitute legal or medical advice.
