http://serverfault.com – I am involved in creating a system where the web application and the database won't be hosted on the same LAN or WAN, i.e. data will be transferred across public network. The web server and database server will be located in the same country. As the data communication needs to be secure I am researching a couple of options: Option 1: IPsec tunnel between web server and database server Option 2: Encrypting data using SSL between web server and database server To try to give some background, the purpose of the web application is to present data (mostly graph co-ordinates, text labels, etc) f (HowTos)

I need to securely encrypt data in my database so that if the database is dumped, hackers are unable to decrypt the data.

I'm planning on creating a simple key server on a different machine, and allowing the DB server access to it (restricted by IP address on the key server to permit the DB server).

I have a SQL Express 2008 R2 server running on a server in an internal lan network. A few databases are used by some third party software to store data. A SQL-Server user is used by this application to connect to the database.

Now I need to access this database using a local installation of the software from an external pc.

I have a database server in local. (it means running when I type 192.168.1.1, not upload this database onto web) and I want my android device connects to this database server to get data.

Game login server 34 weeks 5 days ago

I have a setup like this: A website, with a database. This database houses accounts and all details. Password hashes/salts/join dates/etc. What I want to do is to be able to use this same database for our game database. The game will be on servers in the United States while the web server and web server database is in the Netherlands.

Is it safe to optimize a SQL Server 2005 SAP R/3 database using Database Tuning Advisor raccomandatations? We are experiencing very low performance on a dedicated SAP database because of intense read operations ad the db and DTA suggest to create about 25 indexes and 100 stats.

I have an Oracle Database at a remote server. I have created a SSH tunnel (using putty) to that remote database server and I am able to access that database server using 127.0.0.1:1521.

I am creating a web application and to test it I execute it at: localhost:8080/WebApplication.

However, every time, I create the putty session, I am unable to access my web application.
