You'd be the one setting that up. And "heavy traffic" is a bit vague, but it is certainly used by many companies in high traffic environments. > - compatible with web-based applications on mobile devices etc > - allows for a custom version of this site for managers where they can > perform internal functions (e.g. billing, commission etc) Nothing to do with databases themselves really.
