I work for a company who have a VB6 accounting App of about 300 forms with data stored on SQL Server via ODBC. Its working very well on Local Server and for users to use the software, i send shortcut of App to their desktop, from where they execute it.
We now have a client who insists on using Cloud server (e.g Azure) and does not want to maintain a Physical Server in their office. I need solutions on how to have the VB6 app installed on a cloud server and still have client systems able to access it locally, yet with absolute great speed, as if the server is on a LAN.
I would not mind at all having a team work on this as a paid project. I have been tasked with finding the best solution out there, that can make this possible, with emphasis on execution speed.
My Company is ready to invest on finding a solution as this affects us from getting as much clients as we should. I need team here who can help with this.
