1. 4D v11 SQL Success Story: North Dakota State Water Commission

Plotting maps points directly to 4D v11 SQL

Water is one of North Dakota’s most precious natural resources. 4D v11
SQL makes it possible for the State to integrate complex mapping
services within the traditional data management framework to incorporate
management of the spatial component of the water resource data.

3. Tech Note Central

This week's topic: Performance Test: 4D Web Server and Static Documents

This Technical Note analyzes the 4D Web Server’s performance when using
different methods to serve static documents. The sample database
included uses 4D’s Web Server to serve content without code and uses
various tactics within the On Web Connection database method to serve
the same pages via 4D code. The performance testing is done using third
party software and all results are included in the Technical Note.

The goal of this document is not to say which method of serving content
is functionally best, as there are more considerations at play than just
performance when serving static content. Rather, the goal is to give 4D
developers information on how to move their databases to the web and
achieve the fastest performance.
