We recently converted a project from MySQL to SAPDB.  We don't use the
database for any permanent data.  It is just transient information that
we need to store while the application is running.  The application only
has about 10 tables in a single database.

Our application was written in Java so all we had to do was use a
different JDBC driver and rework some SQL statements.  We were using
AUTO_INCREMENT in MySQL and changed them all to sequences in SAPDB. 
Other than that, the change over was easy.

We had done some comparisons with respect to the speed of MySQL vs SAPDB,
and for our particular application, MySQL was about 4x faster on inserts
and queries.  The speed of SAPDB was still suffcient for what we needed,
so we decided to switch.
