        Microsoft Navision DB Selection: C/SIDE or MS SQL Server - overview for IT Specialist 
  by: Robert Horowitz 
 Microsoft Business Solutions Navision serves both European and American megamarkets.  It was originally written by Denmark-based Navision Software in its own proprietary language C/SIDE (Client/Server Integrated Development Environment).  You should consider several factors in deciding on the database selection.  Currently Navision is supported on two platforms - Navision native (C/SIDE) database and on Microsoft SQL Server.  There are certain pluses and minuses in both cases and you should make your decision, based on your company needs.  We'll give you some hints in this subject and you should know then where to look further.
 	Legendary Strength of C/SIDE database - the history of Navision design reveals the primary goals to have its own proprietary database with the built-in features of database transaction integrity.  As far as database is proprietary - Navision can manipulate its and tune it to serve its application.  You can have users use the system heavily and suddenly shut down the power - when power is back on - Navision will be in the same good shap.  The second goal was to provide robust graphical interface.
 	What is the volume of your data? - Navision was originally targeting mid-size and large corporations.  Now, however, Microsoft is trying to target it to large corporations with sophisticated manufacturing.  In this case you could expect huge volume of data - Microsoft SQL Server is better positioned to deal with that.
 	Do you have MS SQL Server Administrator? - Microsoft announces that MS SQL Server is moving to "zero-maintenance needed", but we would like to warn you - if you use Navision - you are more likely mid-size or large company.  In this case you should have somebody to secure your database - in the case if you would like to deploy MSSQL Server
 	Do you plan on Crystal Reports? - you can always deploy C/ODBC to enable your C/SIDE database for Crystal Report, but MS SQL Server has such nice features, as SQL Views and Stored Procedures, which make SQL Server preferable platform
 	Do you need OLAP/Datawarehousing? - then SQL Server is the way to go.  It has built in Analytical Server with OLAP cube creation and Excel data pivoting
 	Do you plan to expose Navision data to other applications? - Navision has tools to expose the data from C/SIDE database (C/ODBC, C/FRONT), but in the case of SQL Server you certainly have standard Microsoft technologies in your disposition

 Customer Testimonials on cellularWe would never claim to be world authorities on cellular but our passion and interest in this area has encouraged us to source out the best locations for cellular purchases and products.
 
 We have set a number of important criteria for evaluating cellular websites. Among these are (1) secure shopping areas for cellular purchases; (2) well documented customer support areas and (3) testimonials from happy clients. Just click on the link below and you will see how these apply:
 
 Customer testimonials are a clear indication that a cellular website is doing a good job. People who have purchased cellular and received their goods in a prompt and efficient manner are the best advertising a business can have. In short they are saying **Buy your cellular here**.
 
 Long established highly reputable cellular suppliers will even provide a contact link so that you can talk directly with the customer. This means that they are so confident that their cellular customer has had a good experience that they are prepared to put you in direct contact with them.
 
 Ultimately it will be your cellular shopping experience that determines how happy you are with the supplier. We'd like to think of ourselves as intermediaries to ensure that your cellular shopping experiences are positive ones. Our website is full of solid evidence backing up the shopping links shown above.
