Hi all,
we plan to write a new web application (something like or compared to Marketo). We thought about of using Xojo Web (and iOS) for this project. We have actually a running application for Retail-Stores (based on PHP/Zend/MySQL running in DataCenter here in Germany) that is used by more than 20 retail chains with a couple of thousend users… Now we want to enhance this application with a new kind of campaign management and CRM backend based on Xojo.
No i have some questions about Xojo Webapps before we start with it (and to be sure that Xojo is the right tool for us)…
- Is the Xojo Cloud stable enough to handle thousands of users and requests per hour ?
- Would you prefer to host the App on another Provider ?? If so… why ?
- What do we have to take care of when we design the application especially when it comes to connect to databases ?
- Would you prefer the PostgeSQL oder MySQL database on Xojo Cloud and why you choose Postgres or MySql ?
- When it comes to database Connections with MySQL … why do i only see the MySQLCommunity “Provider” (dim db As New MySQLCommunityServer) ?
- Where is the best place to open the DB ? In the Session Open Event ? And then Close it in the Session Close Event ?
- Does every user have it’s on session ?
- When it Comes to provide services for our planned Xojo based mobile app… it it better to have this Services in separated headless service app instead of the normal Webapp ?
- When i want to host such an headless Service app… can this also be done with the Xojo Cloud in the same “Container” as the Webapp ?
Thx for helping me !!!
