    Great to see cubeSQL is ready. Can I connect using LiveCode/VB.Net through ODBC?

    A native ODBC driver is currently under development and it will be available soon, in the meantime you can connect with JSON.

    Thanks Marco,

    I was looking at the JSON option earlier. I will look into it again when I get a chance.

    I’m impressed. Seamless update from REALServer to cubeSQL on our Ubuntu Server. All data and logins available as before. Took me 20 minutes (max) to download, uninstall REALServer, install cubSQL and test.

    Congrats and thanks a lot!

    Hmm… it looks like cubeSQLServer is memory leaking on Ubuntu Linux. Since I made the update from REALServer to cubeSQL my vps is running out of memory within 24 hours.
    I was running LAMP (Linux, Apache, MySQL, Perl) plus REALServer for months, without ever getting to use up more than 512MB, and now – within 24 hours – it uses up 1 GB and stops responding.

    Oliver, there are several Ubuntu Linux users that are using cubeSQL and no memory leaks was reported. Can you please email me more details… I am obviously more than willing to help you!

    Thanks Marco! I have been mailing to the list (products@sqlabs.com). I’m currently observing the memory usage stats of the running processes to see if it is really cubeSQL which is exploding. I’ll keep posting to the list.

    You should publish a study as to why someone like me, who uses MySQL, would want to drop $600 on this DBMS.

    mySQL commercial license starts at $2000/year: http://www.mysql.com/products/ most people think that mySQL is always free but this is not true. Anyway Stephen, I don’t think mySQL can be considered a cubeSQL competitor.
