Don,

I expect the the recommendations are, generally, what is considered best
practice.  It's generally unsafe to expose your critical databases (and
servers) to the public directly.  However, if the application is only
available to the intranet (behind the firewall), you might be able to argue
the case....

Subject: RE: iSeries vs. Unix vs. SQL Server vs. Oracle & Security/Data
separation???


I like the idea of running all applications & data on
one iSeries.  And I also know that the iSeries is up
to the task. 

But what frustrates me on this subject is that the
experts at IBM & others also advise Data separation
which is to separate the Web or deployment Server
(Java Application server i.e. WebSphere Application
Server) from the data residing on the iSeries.  The
(experts) advise installing Websphere on one
machine,whether it is a Microsoft box or another
iSeries (they don't necessarily push iSeries for
this), then access the data on the secure iSeries box.

Can't Websphere & data reside on one box with the
proper security setup?  If so, then this is what
should be advised. 

Therefore all my preaching to peers & upper management
to use a single iSeries is thrown out with this
suggestion.
