Production ready?

[Avi Fatal]

Hi,
I have few questions if I may.

1. Is this system suitable for production?
Is see that the online demo version is very slow and has some js errors.

2. Can I use its public API? for example, I want to expose reset/wcf service and let the site write data, is it possible?

3. How do you move from dev to production? lets say I have added some entities in my dev machine and i want to deploy to production, is there any tool to do so?

4. Can I use it with mysql?

5. Is there anyway that I can control the Sql Transaction scope?

6. what kind of support do you provide, its a bit risky to develop under a new product.

Thanks
Avi

Hi Avi,

Sorry for delaying the response.

1. We don't think it's ready for production yet, it's still in its early days, the first stable release will shipped  in next few months. The online demo is hosted in china, the network speed is a bottleneck, the js errors will be fixed soon.

2. The public API is not ready yet, it's very likely to be changed later.

3. Currently there is not tool to do so, you have to do that manually. 

4. In theory, the system supports mysql, because NHibernate is used to handle data access things, however, we didn't tested yet, please have a try and file bugs if you run into any errors.

5. I know the sql transaction scope in this system is arbitrary, it's designed to follow the Unit of Work pattern. The transaction begins automatically when a request arrives, and also it's committed automatically when the request is handled. I am afraid there is no way to control it yet, however, we are open for suggestions, if there are specific scenario that you have to control the transaction scope in finer granularity, we will consider that.

6. When you have any issues or suggestions, please feel free to contact us, you can log issues on github, or just drop a line here as you have done, also you can send emails to coe...@novasoftware.cn, the developer team will response as soon as they can.

Thanks
