[dba-SQLServer] Using SQL Server through my web site

	I use ARVIXE.com for my hosting.  I paid about $200 for 2 years of
hosting.  I get unlimited SQL and MySQL databases.


	The hitch is that they are Express databases.  So, I do have the 10
GB limit.  But, if I am getting that big, I should be paying for a
server co-located there or dedicated to my use.


	I can use SSMS against the databases I create there.  I have also
used SSIS to move data there from my desktop databases.

	I selected my Web host specifically to allow me to have a sql server
database.  What I did not

	examine closely is how many databases or how much they cost.  My
current ISP only allows me one

	MSSQL and one MySQL database which is really pretty silly.  I can
purchase more, but even then only

	up to 3 maximum which is even more silly, and those extra only come with
package upgrades which cost

	a lot more money.


	

	 

	I still want to figure this out just to see what the performance is like
and solve the technical

	problems of using them for the future.
