RikWare moves to Google apps

by admin 19. March 2007 06:40

After ongoing problems with my host's email service I've finally decided to search for other options. Yesterday I migrated my mail server to use Google apps. Basically this means that when you email anybody @rikware.com it actually gets delivered to Google and I access it through the typical GMail interface. Hopefully this will stop those random bounces I seem to give with my own provider. As a little side benefit the email will now come from my address and not have my GMail account as the "sender".

Only one downside at the moment. The GMail Notifier doesn't work for Google apps so I have to find a replacement for that (or whip up something quick myself).

RikMigrations

RikMigrations is a database migration library for .NET based on the migrations facility provided by Ruby on Rails. It allows simple upgrading and downgrading of databases using .NET code (such as VB or C#) either from the command line or built into your application. Unlike many other migration frameworks, RikMigrations is a stand-alone library which does not rely on a large surrounding framework.
