Subject Re: Flex -> -> Firebird. What are pros & cons ?
Author tjelvare
Dear Raja,

There are many web-application-frameworks out there so, as always, it depends..

Many frameworks are centered around *publishing* content,
in one sense or another, some more "backend-like", using
the http/html as a transport for staff communication -
generating documents and more.

I belive things to consider are:
* Glossyness fall short when staff cannot use their ordinary workflow..
* Flex **and** bitweaver? it may become heavy...

The zend-framework may be worth looking at,
http://framework.zend.com/wiki/display/ZFPROP/Zend_Db+Firebird-Interbase+support

I've been using a home-brewn framwork over the years with success,
it's a framework and a concept,
fast, clean and flexible, and *close* to bsd-publishing,
just don't have the time - two kids. If you're interested I can post some more info..
