l By default, MySQLis configured not to allow any SQLrequest larger than 16 megs.
l In the event where 2 requests are made simultaneously on the same record, MySQLwill queue
one of the requests and execute it once the first one is done. In extremely rare cases this may
cause a timeout on very large requests.
l MSSQL(Microsoft SQLServer)
l All versions of the SQLServer are supported, including all Express versions.
l Database can be in any location, but performance will depend on the speed of the connection
between PlanetPress Production and the SQLserver.
l In the event where 2 requests are made simultaneously on the same record, SQLServer will
drop the most complex request. Resubmitting the PGCfor processing should resolve this issue.
This, however, should happen only rarely.
l When configuring the ODBCconnection, your must use the Microsoft version of the driver, and
not the Native SQLversion of the driver. This is due to a technical limitation of the native driver
that interferes with the PReS Suite database requests.
