Thread: Storing database in WORM devices

Storing database in WORM devices

From
Date:
I would like to store the complete database into a WORM device (Write Once Read Many). I would like to access this database directly from the WORM device and perform read only SQL statements against this device.
 
Does anyone have such installation, or can determine if this is possible?
