Other Raspberry Pi

I read so many articles claiming that the SD card of RPi is prone to physical corruption due to extensive read write operations in a commercial installation where the app is run for more than 6 hours. Is it true. I plan to develop B4j apps in RPi to be deployed in commercial environment.
Is there any other similar hw available without the corruption issue?

How about Banana pi it is much powerful with a sata interface. Loads raspbian os. Anyone has used the board for B4j apps

Just plug a hd/ssd to one of the USB-ports. Browse the www to boot it from that hd/ssd. I've used an older 80 GB IDE drive with a IDE2USB adapter with power supply. SATA will do, too (the adapter supports both. Price about 10€ including cables).

I've installed Apache & MySQL and did some heavy tests. Works like a charm.

A very good article on extending life of SD cards on the PI.
