Kdb+ as a replacement to web services and tibco messaging

Hi,

 

I am just wondering, whether I can get good performance to link my C# .Net frond end with C++ back end using kdb+ as a middle ware messaging layer?.

 

I am thinking if I can use kdb+, then I don’t need web services or tibco to connect front and back ends.

I don’t need separate db server like sql server/oracle as well if I can do this I guess.

This seems to cut multiple compents for me.

 

Does this make sense to anybody and is this possible?. How is the performance going to be?.

 

I am trying to build an application with C++ connecting to .net front end, I am not sure whether this is possible.

Are there any missing links here?.

 

Thank you for your time in answering this for me.

 

Regards,

RB

My 2 cents: For prototypes of some web based metrics, I tried withkdb+ for everything: web services (front-end with javascript) anddatabase servers; MVC is easy, the resulting performance is very goodand the development cycle is very short (debugging is a snap), thecode size (kloc) is about 1/10 of the final perl equivalents that arerequired for production system. It’s an amazing experience.
