You can also simply change to Mono-Framework and keep the SQL server in
the background.=20
There is no need to change the SQL database.

Betreff: [Mono-list] Advice: Porting SQL Server app to Mono, what should
I target
Hello All,
=20
I am sure this is a fairly common problem. I am porting a Enterprise
application (M$ .NET, C# and SQL Server) to Mono-1.=20
=20
Which are the best SQL platforms to target? (Compatibility vs.
Stability/Enterprise Features)
- PostGreSQL
- SAP DB
- Interbase
- mySQL - does not have a good rep for Enterprise-apps.
- DB 2
- Sybase - I assume this is most compatible, as they share
common roots. But is this open-source and stable?
- Are there any others?
=20
Lastly, how do the existing db-libs stack up in terms of stability?
=20
Many Thanks
