In my world view, "quick & dirty" is synonymous with inherent inability to scale across quality vectors such as: 1. Integration use-case complexity 2. Data volume growth 3. Concurrent usage growth 4. Deployment target growth When encounter "quick & dirty" associated with anything in the technology realm, the items above send off deafening alarm bells in my head :-) Kingsley > > cheers, > > fps > > > -- Disclaimer ------------------------------------ > Ce message ainsi que les eventuelles pieces jointes constituent une > correspondance privee et confidentielle a l'attention exclusive du > destinataire designe ci-dessus.
