That's not a survey, it's an advert.  You will make more progress if you don't try and treat us as though we are stupid.

I take it you missed the whole "Take our MultiValue in the Cloud survey
for your chance to win a $25 Amazon gift card!" link at the bottom? :)

I like the logo....
 
If you don't have to worry about keeping track of backups...how do you restore data?
Is this nothing more than just a colocation of a server offsite? 
 
 
I guess if the cloud bursts, then it truely would be "raining data" (sorry Tony)

Without infrastructure and security details, it's pretty much going to be a non-started for anyone sane. 

Hasn't EasyCo been doing MV SaaS for years now, or have they dropped that service offering?

George,

This is market research.  I will share these results with you and everyone else in the MultiValue community!

Cheers!

Well post a link directly to your survey and not to your advert and maybe you will get somewhere.  

As it is what you have posted is about as tacky and dumb a piece of "market research" as I've seen in a long time.

Geeze George, did you get out of the wrong side of the crypt this morning?
Ease up. :)

Sorry "Tony"? The name "Raining Data" was a stupid, awful name. I had nothing to do with the choice or implementation. Literally, until the last minute before they formalized it I was begging them not to go with it. It took many years a new management team but they finally changed to TigerLogic, which personally I think is cool.

 

So let's all Rocket into the Rain on Tigers of the Universe, where there shall be a Revelation that the jBase of all Reality is Ultimately a LadyBridge to the Evolution of Zebras living in a Caché …

Huh? Nvm… :)

Since there's advertising involved, I'll throw in that windows and linux in Amazon EC2 are supported platforms for Caché.

I have installed many MV platforms in cloud solutions. That's the easy
part only because these days the virtual servers we get are near 100%
equivalent to local hardware.

The OP solution is environment management - what service bureaus used
to be, updated for this millennium.

From a matter of "taste", I personally feel each vendor should create
their own thread for ads. Solicitation within someone else's thread is
like spray-painting on someone else's billboard. I admit I've done
this accidentally myself. Competitive thinking is natural in the
eagerness of the moment. But I think people appreciate respect amongst
competitors as much as the fine products which they produce.
