Checking your infoset data consistency after upgrading from 1.x to 1.8+
Database, Advanced, Upgrade, InfoSet, Orchard 1.x, Orchard 1.8, QueryMany Orchard developers, including ourselves act as early adopters of the Orchard source and use the code from the 1.x and other work-in-progress branches. While it gives us the opportunity to try the new features and get the latest bugfixes, some changes introduce important bugs every now and then. That was the case lately on the 1.x branch, when a problem surfaced regarding the infoset storage: for shifted, versionable content parts the infoset data was not saved in the ContentItemVersionRecord table, but into the ContentItemRecord table instead. Sébastien discovered this issue before 1.8 release and provided a method to fix it.

Forum favourites: multi-node Orchard, community features and low-level data access
Community resource, Database, Forum favourites, Multi-node setup, Social, NHibernateForum topics from the Orchard discussion board that we found interesting:
- Running Orchard on two nodes: this is a tricky thing but in this discussion there some good tips
- Community features in Orchard: a lot of built-in and third-party modules bring "social" functionality to Orchard. You won't be able to just install Contrib.Facebook but there are some decent fundamentals.
- A tale of database table locking, transactions and low-level data access in Orchard: sometimes you just have to bury deeper.

Migrating an Orchard site from SqlCe to Sql Express
Community resource, SQL Server, SQL CE, Database, VideoA very useful video by Bertrand Le Roy. Migrating an SQL CE database, the simple-to-use self-contained database format used by Orchard, to a standard SQL Server database is a necessary step when your site grows. SQL CE is great for development and for small sites, but the full SQL Server DBs are much better performing.
