      For database connection , did you connect each time to DB or you using a persistance framework ??

      Are you going to cache database information on the client?

      Doesn't this lead to conflicts?

      Not if done correctly.

          i'm very sorry guys, i was in a meeting regarding this project,

          actually i was informed that this project will not be only a payroll application but it should be kind of a small ERP that include all modules that our enterprise is working on, it is the best news i heard today, because we will migrate from VB.net to a whole PHP application, because we faced a limitation with .net because the boss want to access the portal from his mobile, so the decision was made to start a web application from scratch, i think it was the best decision ever made in my company,

            now i have to prepare myself and start the project using the right tools from the begining and be able to expand the project in the future,
            we will be 2 in this project, the other guy is considered the boss of the project, but i can still propose the right tools and framework to work with

                    I find that MySQL is far, far more reliable than Microsoft's SQL Server. To me, it seems easier to manage and comes without all of the extra overhead in licensing costs.

                      MySQL is totally reliable and that guy is nuts and shouldn't be consulted. There are many good options. SQL Server is probably nearly the least viable. Oracle would be worse. DB2 worse. But that's about it.

                      1. Do you need relational data (I think so)
                      2. If so, my first pick would normally be PostgreSQL, then MariaDB, Firebird, Sybase (if you wanted to pay)

                            does VB.net application .exe can be hosted and accessed in android devices ??? (i'm not talking about ASP.NET)

                              You only said .Net not VB.Net Thus the confusion.

                                because the current application we are using is .exe (VB.NET) for this reason we decided to rebuilt the project using PHP (web application)

                                    Basically, since you are abandoning vb.net, you should abandon Windows completely.

                                    Use a LAMP stack then since those are very simple and familiar to many people.

                                    Spin up a CentOS 7 box, install MariaDB (replacement for MySQL), PHP, and Apache.
