   Internet application with XML

Bidding Time:
25/07/2006 23:58 - 04/08/2006 00:00
Budget:
$100-300
Status:
Closed


Job Type:
Visual Basic, XML, .NET, ASP
Description:



HostRocket.Com - 1000MB - $4.99

Technical Requirements and Specifications:
- Must be able to run on a Windows 2003 server; the server is owned and operated
by our web hosting company. It is a regular web hosting company, the usual
limitations of a web hosting company apply (i.e. I am not able to add Windows
Services etc.). I am able to upload and execute .DLL files though.
- JMail is active on the server.
- Developed for Windows/.NET architecture - don't mind which Microsoft
tools/language you wish to use, but it has to be written for a Microsoft
environment.
- The application will be required to communicate with a MySQL database. This
database has information on our members, expect around 40,000 members.
- The application will be required to retrieve/monitor data in an XML source,
which will be hosted on an external web server. There are around 5,000 records
in the XML source, with around 20 fields.

Project Details:
We work with the company who monitors the price of petrol being sold at petrol
stations throughout Australia. They monitor prices on a daily basis, monitoring
all the petrol stations nationally. This information is stored in an XML data
source, stored on their servers, and is updated constantly throughout the day
(5,000 potential updates per day).
We also have a MySQL database which is stored on our server, which has
information on our members.
We require a developer who can build an application (with the specifications
listed at the top), which monitors/checks the XML data source constantly.
If the XML file changes (for example, if the price of petrol at one of the
petrol stations goes up or down), the required application would detect/find the
changes straight away (or as close as possible).
If a change is detected, the application would then check the MySQL database –
based on a simple criteria (which I will explain at a later stage), an e-mail
will be sent to that particular member.

Important:
- The project has to be efficient; changes to the XML file must be detected as
quickly as possible, and e-mails must be sent ASAP as well.
- Needless to say, the application has to be stable and reliable. 100% uptime.
- Has to be a professional grade application.
