Question

REST module and the internal DB

1

I really like the internal database for PoCs especially for the DB snapshots. The documentation for the REST module states that the internal database should not be used. Does this still apply? What are the consequences or restrictions? Thanks Marcel

Why do you not use Postgres? It's free and used by Mendix for the cloud nodes and you can make your snapshots yourself. From a compatibility standpoint your best choice :)

Consuming services is safe in general when using the internal database. Publishing microflows becomes quickly unreliable however; the internal DB always locks a complete table which can cause trouble when serving simultaneously incoming requests, especially if data services are used.
