kindergarten-RDBMS :-D And what about Interbase Firebird? Is it stone-stable and is possible to do simple backup/restore process to make ready&go backup? I will use ZODB and filesysstem as main storage, but some SQL is needed too. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Andreas Jung" <lists@zopyx.com> To: "Jaroslav Lukesh" <lukesh@seznam.cz>; "Andreas Jung" <lists@zopyx.com>; <zope@zope.org> Sent: Wednesday, September 24, 2008 9:01 AM Subject: Re: [Zope] which platform independent database? --On 24.

But now I want to make some kind of portable, near OS independent (win/lin) compact zope solution. So I look for RDB with like "blackbox" functionality, with nothing special to make backups of running system (like make backup of Data.fs) and nothing to install when move - make backup copy of live system and then run it on another machine. Installations are allowed only in case of change OS platform.
If you don't want any moving parts: don't use a RDBMS but soley use the ZODB (where the Data.fs is basically the only moving part). If you are looking for a kindergarten-RDBMS: look at SQLite. All other enterprise-level databases are of course more complex and require more maintenance..make your choice.. -aj
