TiddlyWiki isn't an interface on top of some database -- it's the database and interface all mixed together. So it doesn't really have a "back-end" that can be swapped out for some external source. Since it can also run on node.js, I imagine there might be some klugey way to make it exchange data with some other back-end.
But ... why? There must be a half-dozen server-based wiki's out there. TW is unique in that it is a single file that stands alone. It's good for accommodating the productivity styles of individuals, who each can set it up to match their particular thinking style. This sort of individuality is not often encouraged in the corporate world.
