Amazon seems to be leading contender in the Cloud world. Docummentation suggests they support Java, PHP, Python, Ruby, Windows with .NET (C# and VB) and now a version of MongoDB (No SQL/Map Reduce) along with their version of SQL Database (Amazon RDS). They also support virtual drive drag and drop capabilities. Have you have any experience with deploying Cloud applications?

Besides Amazon has offered such services for years at a professional level and at extremely low costs. Browse to Database here: http://aws.amazon.com/products/ Note that extensive developer support is offered as well: http://aws.amazon.com/code/ If you need a full database in the cloud, go to Azure or have your own virtual machine.

Looking at it, you could extend the technnology to store the data files anywhere on the internet in exactly the same way. It's just a bunch of files stored somewhere which the application has to manage- no BE engine involved. If you want" a full database that runs anywhere there is browser netwrok/web services", there are plenty of mySQL and SQL Server systems out there which do exactly that and they have been around for years. -- Stuart On 1 Nov 2012 at 11:39, Jim Lawrence wrote: > How about a full database that runs anywhere there is browser > network/web services.
