If that connects workstations on a LAN, that's fine. If it connects to the
Internet, that's not fine.
I think you're referring to collaborative software, not databases.
Resolve is a collaborative software and achieves that collaboration in part via
postgreSQL. When it's set to use sqlite it is a non-collaborative mode.
Technically, a database has nothing to do with collaboration and distributed procedures. I'm not
familiar with postgreSQL. I imagine it incorporates lending with ownership and so is suited to
distributed procedures.
The database approach is true genius: you get extremely fast, powerful, free
open source project sharing. In the array of tradeoffs between editing
systems, this one's a plus for Resolve. But that benefit can involve open
ports, and closing them can undermine its ability to function
Yup, trust me, I'm from Blackmagic.
Cool! Doing what?
That was meant as a joke. Like "Trust me. I'm from the government."
The issue is not what Blackmagic does. It's what Blackmagic sets up that facilitates what bad actors
could do. There are other ways to implement distributed procedures that doesn't involve 'push'
technology. But like I wrote, in a LAN with no connection to the Internet, it's fine.
You know, companies have learned that if you want customers to accept A or B, then don't tell them
about C, D, E,... People tend to choose between the alternatives they're given without thinking
about other alternatives. That's human nature. It's also naive. Companies count on that.
