Godfrey Ultimatesoft | Hi All
I have no web dev experience and I am wanting to use EWB to develop web based database clients. I downloaded Remobjects data abstract which seems to be the best solution for the server side database layer. Suggestions for getting started? As far as I am told a RO/DA server has to be installed on the web based server. I do not have a dedicated server but instead use a hosted server. Most of the hosting compnies will not allow apps to be installed on their servers. Is there any way around this? Thanks Godfrey |

Raul ![]() | Godfrey,
It depends on type of hosting you have. The most flexible would be to get a full virtual server instance (for example Amazon EC2 and similar) in which case it can be Windows based and you can install whatever you want including RO/DA or Delphi app. The most limited (and affordable) would be "regular" web hosting (usually HTML + PHP + MySQL) where you can't install anything - however note that you could write the server side in PHP and still access it from EWB app. Most work on your part but not tons - it is relatively easy to write a basic DB access layer that just takes a query or table name and returns data in JSON foramt which EWB can then load into its dataset. There are other in-between and i'm sure other people will have suggestions for hosting as well. I do not use RO/DA myself so don't have any direct experience but assuming it's their Relativity server you can use then it can be deployed in Windows or Linux (looks like thru Mono support) but you would need a virtual hosting instance that allows you to install 3rd party apps.
