Re: DBFCDX or SQLite
Rightly asked Foued.
1. Yes. it is.
This is their mission statement stressing on technical and legal means to guarantee the technology used by the world's largest database community to be free in every sense.
3. Yes and no. There are some RDDs using DBF like commands to access SQL. However, I prefer using the straight SQL connection. If you want to use straight SQL based functions and commands it is easy too. SQL is recordset based. This is because of ACID requirements. It is being handled using arrays in Harbour. If you want I can create prototype of dbf and sql operations.
4. Yes. You can migrate a part of a project if the database can be migrated in such a way the integrity doesn't get affected.

2. Theoretically unlimited. It is limited by your network resources and bandwidth. Most of the web servers run on MySQL. Even our forum runs on MySQL only. MariaDB is developed by the original MySQL developer.All of MariaDB is by default be GPL

East or West HMG is the Best.
South or North HMG is worth.
...the possibilities are endless.

Re: DBFCDX or SQLite
One thing I like about SQLite is the possibility to use it with SQLCipher to have the database secure.
More about it here: http://hmgforum.com/viewtopic.php?f=7&t=2416
And here is a good topic about going from DBF to SQLite: http://hmgforum.com/viewtopic.php?f=37&t=1539
I hope it will help someone
