Data Handling
Miva Merchant Empresa 5 utilizes our new MIVA-SQL, an SQL 92 compliant interface on top of a high-performance, architecture-neutral, multi-user data system. Database and index files can be copied and used across platforms without any conversion or time consuming data unload/load procedures. This makes Miva Merchant Empresa 5 an ideal system for hosting services and sites that have different architectures for development, maintenance, and publishing. The integrated database system uses an xBase core file system that is wrapped with the high performance Miva Merchant Database Indexing System (MDIX).
Database Interfaces
Additional client libraries are available for Miva Merchant Mia/Empresa to interface with popular database schemes, such as MySQL, Oracle, and ODBC. MySQL database connection requires a separate connector library configured to run with Miva Merchant Mia/Empresa.

Sandboxed Execution
All MivaScript applications can be configured to automatically run at the permission level of the document owner. Directory hierarchies for reading and writing server data files can be authorized globally, by group, by user, or in any combination.
Administration
Miva Merchant-enabled sites are fully configurable by the site administrator. System wide parameters can be applied to execution behavior with special parameters for user, group, and virtual domain specific configurations. Whenever a Miva Merchant-enabled document is accessed, log file entries can optionally detail the execution of the active document.
Miva Merchant Empresa 5 allows site administrators to provide a managed development environment that has none of the typical drawbacks associated with server-based development systems.
Cross Platform
Miva Merchant Empresa 5 is implemented as a virtual machine which can run across different server interfaces and operating systems. MivaScript applications, data files, and index files are fully portable across a multitude of interfaces. A MivaScript application will work exactly the same using CGI, ISAPI, or different operating system platforms including multiple different Unix platforms and Windows NT/2000/XP/2003.
