Your own DataBlade contains the business logic to validate the forms, the Web DataBlade handles communications with the browser, via the web server, the serving of web pages and forms and making calls on your company DataBlade to update the database. Everything self contained, threaded and parrallised for you. If you are worried about the stability of Universal Server use the Illustra version for a while and upgrade later.
