The use of Zim Server Connectivity in an application has an impact on performance. There are several factors to consider: Client-server configurations introduce additional overhead that is not present when an application is using a local database. The most obvious overhead is that every database request must be translated into a server request, the request…

Using ZIM Security Within Zim, security is provided through a combination of log in user names, passwords, and entity set, relationship, and…

There are two different moments when dealing with Zim Server Connectivity: 1) The preparation of client database: this step is done only once and creates data definitions to allow the client database to “see” what is defined in the other Zim database and it is obligatory; 2) The preparation of remote database: the other database…
