Yep, owned by Oracle, but there's nothing I can do about that. This is going to be a small database for a small non-profit.
If it's such a small database, couldn't you use SQL Express? Or is the extra cost of the Windows server prohibitive for your clients?

SQL Server comes on the hosted server, included in the $5/mo hosting fee. The concern is not wanting to pay for 2 separate hosts & not wanting existing code to break.

I'm going to be working on a website that is currently on a Linux machine that has HTML, CSS and some javascript. The site needs a database. If I port it to a Windows server, I can use SQL Server. If I leave it on a Linux machine, I have to use My SQL. I don't think anything will break if we move it to Windows, but I haven't worked with the web in long enough that I'm not positive. I'd much prefer to work on SQL Server, but don't know if MySQL has any reasons to avoid it like the plague.Any opinions?
PostgreSQL. I liked it better than MySQL. Seemed more complete.

They did a movie too[/url] - wasn't too good, but I thought it was worth watching because I loved the series so much.The movie's good if you watch it with no assumptions that it has anything at all to do with the book, other than the name.
Just like the movie World War Z:
Great comic. Still want to see World War Z, but just because I'm a The Walking Dead fan (series and comics), so a zombie movie always scores with me.
But now I also want to read the book of course 🙂
The WWZ movie was entertaining, but not like the book. The book was fanastic, IMHO. Read it on a flight across the country, and couldn't put it down.

What is the website written in? I assume the reason it is running on Linux is because is php and needs to run on Apache? You can install Apache on a windows box too. We have two Windows servers with Apache running for php sites.

I thought there might be, but I've asked since posting here and it is all HTML/CSS and javascript.
The program I'm re-writing has a lot of php, but I'm doing it from scratch and am going to go entirely with HTML5/CSS and javascript. Microsoft has said that's the way forward, so I figure I'll give it a try.

If it is all pure HTML then it won't make any difference what flavor of web server you host it on. Apache or IIS will serve those equally well with no issue.

The existing website has no database. I'm adding functionality.
Rather, there's an existing MySQL database that is accessed through php that does not meet our needs. I'm replacing it from scratch and from scratch means rethinking your tools. I've decided to go with SQL Server, HTML5/CSS and JavaScript. If there's something that just can't be done with that, ASP.Net.

How many people (besides Jeff and myself) have written SQL Spackle articles?How many SQL Spackle articles are there?
Yes, I have a reason for asking. But I want to share it with the Spackle authors first before I say anything else.
