Re: How Can I deploy Express Application On the Cloud
There is no simple answer to this question.
If you are wanting anonymous access to an Xbase++ application, then this is not really practical.
Xbase++ apps, just like all other Windows apps, can certainly run on an application server, such as Terminal server or Citrix, but each client must connect via a thin-client program that uses RDP or ICA. This means that each user must download and install the thin client. You also need to pay for a license for each concurrent user. If you expect that you may have as many as 10 concurrent users, then you need 10 terminal server licenses.
To prevent these complications and costs you would be required to rewrite your application as an HTML-based server app whose client is a standard web browser, such as IE, Chrome, FoxFire, or Safari.
What kind of application is this?

hi,
Xbase (all Version) use DBF. a File based System which can´t run in "share" Mode in a Cloud as i know.
if you change your Backend to SQL e.g. PostgreSQL than you can access it over TCP/IP
if you wait for next CTP from Alaska have a look at CXP and Xbase++ v2.0 pgDBE
