  • Depends on your development needs

  • Can you be specific please?

    What do you want to use it for? What's the scenario? Why are you concerned about it?

  • That's like saying should we use carpet in a building. There's no way to answer that unless someone knows what you are trying to achieve. If it's a warehouse, it doesn't make much sense.

  • I vote yes to carpet.

    In a warehouse, Carpet does not make sense.... It will get dusty and dirty. So I vote for no carpet..

    That's just blatantly discriminatory 😀

    Whether to use replication in development enviornment or not?

    Yes if it is self-contained. No if you are thinking of replicating from a production system.

  • Actually, I'd carpet the office area in the warehouse, just not the warehouse area itself.

    C'mon guys, think outside of the box! Ok, so warehouses aren't usually carpeted, but I'm sure the guys that walk miles through it every day picking stock would appreciate a little comfort underfoot...

    Okay, but how often do you want to replace the carpet? Fork lifts and palate jacks are going to do a number on the carpet.

    True, but I think we might compromise on a nice carpety strip down the sides of the aisles.

    The equipment can use the un-carpeted centre bits.

    I can see it now...;-)
