Ray I have used UO.NET for WinForms development and found it to be fast and stable : just as its predecessor (UniObjects) has always been. I used UniObject (uvObjects) since it first came out for all kinds of "heavy data" applications - from 4GLs to reporting tools - and have never been disappointed in it. It just works - that's always good to say! And for transactional work it is quite simply the quickest route available.
But UO was designed for permanent, stateful connections: previously I and other members of this list have written connection pools for stateless environments where needed, before IBM added their own connection pooling facility (and with it, the restriction not to use third party connection pools as part of the product licencing). The problem is that the UO native connection pooling required to run in a stateless and multithreaded environment such as a service or ASP.NET middleware is very new - connection pool licencing is a new feature in UniVerse 10.2 - and so I doubt you will find that anyone has had a chance to really prove that part of it yet.
