morning all,

I'm investigation options for some development work I want to do.

Basically I want to use two methods for writing and reading from a remotely hosted MySQL database.

First method is via a vb.net app running on one of my servers. this will create data and write it into the DB.

Second method is via an android app which will pull data from the DB but will also write updates back to the DB on occasion.

So in a nutshell... VB.NET <-> MYSQL <-> android

I don't currently have the option to host the database myself.

am I going to run into a wall here is terms of security issues with the hosting company (yes I've asked, just waiting for a reply from them) and if so is there another way around this??
