sql_bridge is now automatically included
Cyrious Control uses Microsoft SQL Server as its database engine/backend. It is often desirable to interface the Control data with another business application such as a web site, production scheduling program, or other.
Knowledgeable database programmers can read the data directly from the SQL databases without danger of interference with Control provided they ensure database, table, and row level locking is disabled in their requests.
Cyrious Control's SQLBridge (SQLBridge) is a collection of SQL Server stored procedures and functions and external modules that can be called to safely insert or update data into the Control database and notify the CHAPI service that data has been updated. The CHAPI service is a controller program that will then notify the SSLIP and all copies of Control about the changes.
