A. The quick answer is no. We like using the integrated SQLite database because a user can be up and running simply and quickly, which is one of our install goals. Plus, it's free, which is often the IT pro's goal. Making a change like this would also have a significant impact on Spiceworks Support, since an external database is subject to many different kinds of environmental factors and configuration options. It would be much more difficult for Support to help people as easily as they can now.
