Web Connection Application Hosting Services
Web Connection's primary target audience are companies
interested in hosting their own Web servers on the Web or an Intranet. Finding application hosting services with
independent ISPs may be a little difficult as Web Connection introduces fairly intensive resource
requirements with
the installation of Visual FoxPro and you may need full access to your machine
in order to administer the application. Reality: Most ISPs won't allow it in a
typical shared hosting enironment.
If you are building a serious Web application you should carefully consider
running your application on a dedicated machine even if you choose to use an
ISP to host your site. Many ISPs provide co-location options, so check with your local ISPs.
These days pricing for co-location is often very reasonable and having your
own dedicated box provides peace of mind.
There are providers that allow hosting FoxPro specific applications.
These companies have FoxPro knowledgeable staff and are familiar with the
unique requirements for running FoxPro and Web Connection applications on
the Web:
