Xbase Vs. Client-Server

Xbase Vs. Client-Server

Post by Gregory A. Smi » Fri, 09 Sep 1994 23:49:49



Can anyone tell if there are any objective metrics for when to move from
Xbase File-Server Architecture (such as FoxPro) to a Client-Server RDBMS
Architecture (such as Sybase-Powerbuilder)?

For instance, is there a threshold in number of records, megabytes of
data or number of simultaneous users at which FoxPro should be ruled
out as a development tool.

If anyone has any objective metrics, benchmarks, or statistics supporting
such a threshold, please email them to me at:


Thanks in advance.
