Systems selections

Factors affecting database systems selections

  • Copyleft 'free to modify' and 'free in cost' software is strongly preferred over other solutions.
  • Minimal modifications required could be another preference as that means maintenance of the chosen solution is minimized in that aspect.

Encodings

  • Integers w:BASE10 for integers, size depends on available solutions. Escape integer ceiling by bluntly encoding the integer as string of BASE-10 chars, dirty hack but could do the trick.
  • Condense URL encoding w:BASE64 and 64 possible characters, exactly 6 bits from w:ISO/IEC 646 (hard compatible with 7-bit ASCII)
  • w:UTF-8 encoded w:Unicode for text. UTF-8 is efficient and allows 2^32 different characters.. unless escaped to 40-bit in future revision
