Thanks for de answer António!
You said "so your best chances are to upsize your data from your local DBF to a remote MySQL replica and work from there".
This process that you suggested of upsizing data and placing in a remote MYSQL replica(that I assume it's is the web host database), there is any way to make it automatic or are you suggesting to making it manually?
