$100 for two things working together!

#1: I need the code for a "Hello World" app shell using Remote Database Connector (RDC)
that reads and displays a remote hosted MySQL db that has one table with 5 fields.

#2: I need a dummy MySQL db that has 5 fields (one image field, 4 text fields with generic names) setup for me on some freehosting site (can be any, but www.000webhost.com is acceptable).

3 dummy records for display/test purposes would be fine.

This setup must be able to handle 10,000+ concurrent users hitting this tiny db simultaneously.

You will also be my hero! Just setup a db on a remote site and give me the working code to hit it, per above.



*There will be inserts and deletes to this db, but you do not have to put that functionality into the app shell code (may affect how you setup db permissions, though).

the number of concurrent users will have little to do with the code and more to do with any restrications put into place by the host.
 
UPDATE: Guys, no more inquiries, please. Vpires and dealsmonkey are talking to me in PMs and I believe that I can work out payment to one of them.

MANY, many thanks to all of you for your PMs and interest. This means a lot to me. Thank you all.

Is your application worth an investment of ~$19 a year?

Look at what $19 a year will get you: http://lowendbox.com/blog/black-fri...-and-7month-3gb-openvz-vps-in-five-locations/
Your very own VPS!

I have two VPSs with WeLoveServers and have had no problems so far - in fact they've both been reliable and fast.
Install Ubuntu 12.04, apache, PHP and MySQL and you have everything you need.
You can run the B4A RDC library on such a server or use PHP scripts to provide a web service.

How on earth can they offer VPSs at that price?

Exactly - where's the catch?
Read the comments though on http://lowendbox.com/blog/weloveservers-19year-1gb-openvz-in-buffalo-dallas-la-kent-uk-and-orlando/ and http://lowendbox.com/blog/black-fri...-and-7month-3gb-openvz-vps-in-five-locations/ and you'll see just about every comment is a positive comment.

I've had two VPSs with WeLoveServers since September last year and had no downtime (that i've noticed), they had an offer to double up the specs for $19 which i did.
So for $38 x 2 = $76 a year i have 2 VPSs each with:
  • 2GB memory
  • 60GB disk space
  • 2.4GB swap
  • 2TB monthly bandwidth
  • A single dedicated IP4 IP address
  • A large choice of available operating systems to choose from
  • 1Gbps port speed
I wouldn't store anything on the server that i don't have a copy of elsewhere, just in case a disaster happens but at this price it's worth a gamble.

Martin, that is outstanding! Thank you. Could I pay you $50 to setup Ubuntu, apache, the PHP, and a generic 6 field MySql db (per the specs at the start of this thread above, except 6 fields instead of 5) for me?

I already have the shell app to ping the MySql db, so no need to reinvent that half. I just need a working setup online.

Please PM me for the details, as I have already purchased a VPS on WeLoveServers per your above.
