to put our programming skills to use in a web-based environment, creating tools of all sorts from client management to proposal creating.

Backing our application systems is MySQL - the Internet's standard for a database management system. Utilizing the features of InnoDB tables - our databases use advanced features such as integrity constraints, foreign key constraints, and are normalized to 3NF form. MySQL is the industry's most popular open source database - offering consistent fast performance, high reliability and ease of use.

Databases can be cumbersome things (ever heard of Access!) and our professional database development team can create a solution for your website or could assist you
in migrating your companies databased processes to a newer solution. As an open source alternative, there are no licenses to buy with MySQL. Now that's money saved - considering
some database management systems can cost more than $20,000.00!

this new environment.
