I have a big app, implemented in Delphi 7. The DBMS is MS SQLServer. Well, we want to develop a few modules to browser and a few using multi-tier (because some modules should be a Desktop app by having to communicate with some peripheral). To this app, the server would be Windows. The modules from Desktop too. But, in the future, I want to use Linux too. New apps, I can use PostgreSQL so, no problems with drive connections. I never use ODBC/FreeTDS on Linux. This is stable? All resources have been implemented like SP's, multi-SQL in the same instruction, etc?
