Hello Raul,

Sory, English is not my mother language,

I think a lot of misunderstandings can be explained by that.

In you do your web using php in a cheap Linux server, comunicating with the IBM i, the result will be worst than green screen. Besides, cheap Linux servers do not scale well. You need Linux mainframes.

IBM i wasn't in the mix.

I expect Green Screen performance to be always ahead of Web when using similar underlying techniques.

I can see your opinions are based in experince with others platforms, that you extrapolate to the IBM, not valid.

From my limited experience I assert, some facts are similar enough for extrapolation. See below.

With Apache, RPG, SQL, my P9, having only one core activated, can prossess over a hundred transactions every second at peack time. I think scale will not be a problem.

I'd expect DB2 on IBM i to indeed behave better than MySQL on some Linux. Within the limits some very fundamental technological challenges, such as locking. Down below, everybody eventually cooks with water.

:wq! PoC
