[dba-Tech] Access Performance on a WAN

>From my understanding, you will do this at your own risk.  The speed is not
the issue, it is the latency.

Some people have implemented this without any problems, but I have read of
others with lots of corruption and the like.

Hello to Everyone!

 

I have a potential customer with a few different sites around the country.
They have a WAN with 1.5 Gbit/sec capacity.  I said that I would like to do
a test to see if this is feasible with Access XP, and they are willing to do
that.  I can do a few things to minimize network traffic to help things work
faster, but a test is still needed.  I do use a split FE/BE setup.

 

Does anyone have experience with this scenario?

 

Does 1.5 Gbit/sec correspond to 1.5 / 8 = 187.5 Mbytes/sec?

 

Thanks!
