You just confirmed what I already know. I just wanted to know if CGI interface is production worthy since it has less baggage than deploying with PHP ?
Do you think the CGI interface is production worthy ?
I don't want to put any more time into it unless you tell me the CGI part of XMLSERVICE is seaworthy. Thoughts ?
Also your comment brings up an interesting question:
Why would you want to make ODBC or JDBC stored procedure calls via XMLSERVICE when they are supported by their respective drivers already ?
Even in the case of PHP you can already use DB2 stored procedures without XMLSERVICE, correct ?

Richard,
You are not "saddled" with using Zend Server for any part of XMLSERVICE. You can use the CGI interface or the stored procedure interface without ZS. The stored procedure interface that Zend Server uses is available via any method of DB connection (ODBC, JDBC, etc).
Also, the other reason the stored procedure method is faster is because, if I remember correctly, the CGI program is just calling the stored procedures anyway. :)
