Ferrule Media software developement

Ingen internett-tilkobling.

Vi har utviklet et produkt som fungerer separat fra klinikkens eksisterende datanettverk. Dental Kanal trenger heller ikke tilkobles internett, hvilket medfører at driftskostnadene blir så lave som mulig. Oppdateringer utføres om nødvendig ved hjelp av tilsendte cd-plater.

To non-norwegian speaking people: It´s updated by shipping a CD.

This makes some sense, since some dentists might not have a network available.

But a network aware version should be feasible, so I guess they could perhaps make it in a later version - for an upgrade fee ;-)

Cool product. My sister is a "tannpleier", currently re-educating herself to be a "tannteknikker" - so I´ll tip her off to it.

Keep it up Ferrule Media Software!

A small four part system could be developed:

1) SQL Lite DB holding the content for the application

2) A network pull routine checking Ferrule Media softwares server for content updates for a particular customer, which then updates the content locally to #1

3) A disk push routine to dump the SQL data as Hollywood files to local disk

4) A Mac/Windows service module to invoke #2 and #3 at a set interval

Now, Ferrule Media Software could partner with Airsoft Softwair to make a "Hollywood PRO" which incorporates #1, #2 and #3. Then Ferrule Media simplifies maintenance of their software seeing as #4 exists for atleast Mac and PC.

-- EDIT ---
Looking at it again, I see that #1 can be dropped. And #3, and just write it straight to disk from Ferrule Server. But SQL lite could bring some robustness and versioning locally for the dentist.
