    Hi Daniel,

    In the Uniface Lab, we are using/testing uniface against the Azure SQL managed instance every build.

    What exactly are you looking for?

    Kind regards,

    Sjaak

    Hello Sjaak

    We are currently using Uniface for a big application on Citrix Windows server (Internal servers) on Oracle Database.

    Our application works in Client / Server mode (not in Web mode).

    I would like to know if it would be possible to migrate our environment to the Azure Cloud. With Azure Citix servers hosting Uniface and our Uniface applications which would be in C/S with Azure SQL servers.


    How do I know if this would be feasible, with the same level of comfort for our end users who are spread across Europe?


    Do you know any customers who use this configuration?

    Thank you for your help!
    Daniel

    Hello Daniel,

    Both uniface & SQL managed server work in Azure.

    It all depends on the setup and the nr of transactions. Best to have uniface & DBMS close to each other.

    Support might have an answer on whether other customers us something similar. Still every situation will be different.

    Kind regards, Sjaak

    Hi Daniel,

    Be careful, we tested our application on Azure (Virtual machine with uniface app - similar as you mentioned client server accessible via citrix) and we identified the delay on Managed instance. It looks like our application is using cursor server and we see the delay of 2ms between each cursor fetch between application and managed instance.

    We are using default value of the step size and keysetcursor is on

    Any advice from Uniface?
