Special Forums IP Networking Network Tweaking - Database Query Across Internet Post 302461338 by Neo on Sunday 10th of October 2010 12:38:15 PM

You could move your server closer to the database server (in terms of hops). For example, if the database is in California and you are in New York, you could get better performance by moving your server to a data center in California.

Honestly, there is not much you can do if you do not lease the bandwidth between your server and the database server. You can't control network traffic across the Internet, you can't control bandwidth, you can't control latency, and the more hops between your server and the database server, the more uncertainty (and lack of control).

If the database if fairly static, you could replicate or cache a copy locally near your server; but as Pludi mentioned, without more details, there is not much else to offer.

nsquery(1)						      General Commands Manual							nsquery(1)

Name
       nsquery - name server query command

Syntax
       /usr/ucb/nsquery [ lookup ] [ host ] [ server ]

Description
       The command provides an interface to obtain host name and address information.

       If  you	specify  host,	the command obtains information about the specified host. If no host is specified, the command obtains information
       about the local host system.

       If you specify server, the command queries the BIND server that you specify. If you do not  specify  a  server,	the  command  queries  the
       default BIND server.

Options
       lookup  Retrieves the host name, Internet Protocol (IP) address, and aliases of the specified host.  If no host or server is specified, the
	       command obtains information about the local system from the default BIND server.

	       If you do specify the lookup option, the command obtains the information about  the  BIND  server  and  host  specified	(or  their
	       defaults).   If the system from which you issue the command is a BIND server, and you do not specify the lookup option, information
	       about only that server is retrieved.

Files
       Directory containing BIND server data file

       BIND server boot file

       Host database file containing name to address mapping for BIND primary
			   server

       Host database file containing address to name mapping for BIND primary
