One of our websites (which until recently was using SQL Anywhere 10 for storage) is now used by 10s of people at a time and the database has grown to 48 MB; I recently moved the data to SQL Anywhere 16 because we were beginning to get "Timed out trying to establish connection" errors and I hoped that might help. Doubters amongst us think that we have to move the data to SQL Server .. that SQL Anywhere 16 is not robust enough to do the job. Horrors.. what say you? I'd appreciate the perspective of those "in the know"
(We also upgraded Windows Server for the database VM from 2003 to 2012)
