  I hate that I cannot interface database-servers directly anymore, because everything needs a damn webservice to be usable in a cloud world. But quickly hacking something together just introduces new problems, not even speaking of sync issues.

  So this seems quite compelling and probably makes sense for a lot of applications. Best of luck with your service.

  The post says:

  How exactly is Dr. Richard Hipp involved in this?

  No pricing info, at least not without signing-up?
