MenuWhat is a good starter database software for a small business?
I am on a very tight budget and would prefer a one off payment, and not be tied to subscription services
Answers
Linux + MariaDB (Fast MySQL).
Enterprise level throughput + scalability.
Cost == $0.
Well, cost included with whatever hosting you're using.
I run a private hosting company. Some of my machines are running 250,000+ uniques/hour + have been for months.
MariaDB can handle whatever load you throw at it...
Well... so long as your coders know how to write high speed code.
Most coders are clueless about this.
Tip: Pay for expensive developers up front + you'll save huge amounts of money avoiding rewrites.
We are just migrating from Insightly to Agilecrm.com. Take a look - it's fully featured and very good value. We are using it to replace Mailchimp and Campaign Monitor and FeedBlitz for some of our clients.
This is CRM database software - so may not suit your needs. But it's subscription; BUT it's low cost subscription.

What is the easiest way to implement a membership system technology wise for my social networking company?
You can work upon one of the many tools that exist for this exact purpose: 1. You can use aMember to create a standalone membership website. 2. You can setup a Wordpress website and install a plugin like "MemberPress", "Paid Memberships Pro" or a combination of plugins like "Woocommerce + Groups + Subscriptions". It all depends of what sort of interaction you want for your customers. Take a look at those options and see if any of them match what you are looking for. Of course you can create something from scratch but that takes time and usually a lot more money. Make sure what you need doesn't already exist before venturing into a fully custom job. Best of luck! Let me know if you have any more questions!Armando J. Perez-CarrenoAJ

What is the pricing of bundled residential real estate data for USA, California (transactions, date of sale, price of sale, MLS pictures)
In my experience, this data has been at no cost. Most property appraiser sites offer sales data as an excel file for download. Each property can be looked at with exterior photos, or base floor plans. It would take quite alot of dara entry to input into a program, the issue would be the accuracy, if properties change hands within a year. Hope this helps! Warm Regards, MargieMargie KubicekMK

Licensing points of interest database vs. creating your own when creating a mobile app MVP?
Using Google Places API and storing the results in your own database likely violates the terms of service. Likewise, you are limited to the number of calls per day to the API. If you expect users to appreciate (and pay for) the software you are generating, you should do likewise. Go with the licenced database.Bill McEvoyBM

I am looking for SQL Database training materials and recommendations?
Tip: You'll only do this if you're a Thrillseeker looking to loose massive revenue. You'll never, ever, ever turn over design of any business critical system to anyone in the class of "junior anything" who requires "SQL courses". You'll have an experienced designer handle your SQL design.David FavorDF
