Re: Database connectivity - web based

Shane,

You can use DECS to publish AS/400 data to the Web via the Domino HTTP
server. Any data change made to the back-end DB2/400 database will be
reflected on the Web immediately (of course, if your Web page is displaying
the record just changed, you will need to use your browser refresh button).
Just be sure when you create your connection activity in DECS that you
disable caching.

Significant performance enhancements were made to Domino server in V4R3 and
even more so in V4R4. Also, have you installed the latest QMUs. For example,
QMU 5.0.1.02 includes performance enhancements. Goto URL:
