RE: Separate DB from Server or not

Nice dev box! It depends what you are developing, but for most cases it
would be fine to run both SQL and CF on the same box. How many thousands of
queries per second you plan to do, if you are warring? Anything under 1000/s
of "simple" queries will not harm your server performance. Also, unless you
have >25 developers CFMX should not complain.

  on a dev box it shouldn't be an issue, unless you are really, really
  hammering the bejesus out of the thing with a thorough load test or
  somesuch. If you have to buy anything to do this I'd pass until you know
  you need it.

  hey guys, this is my Dev machine configuration

  2.8ghz P4
  1 gig of RAM
  and SERIAL ATA 100 hard drives
  Windows Server 2000

  For now, we have SQL Server running on a separate computer.  I was
  wondering whether we should run them on the same server, or on a
  separate server.  Security is not an issue.  Performance is.  There is
  alot of info traveling between CF and the database and we don't want to
  overload the network (I dont even know if it will even get to that), and
  maybe all that data going back and forth might cause a slight perfomance
  hit to the app.

  But also, the server might slow down if both DB and coldfusion are
  running!  How do you have your dev set up?

  Thanks

Buy two gigabit network cards, and attach the sql server directly to the cf machine.  Problem solved.

But since this is a dev machine, a presumably doesn't get too much traffic, I don't think you need to worry about it at all.
