Hello,
I'm in the process of looking for a host for my site. The host I like
the look of (firestorm.ch) charges more for MySQL or MSAccess databases.
I don't plan at this stage to host large amounts of data and I guess I
could always upgrade if I needed to, but as a general rule are there
major performance or other advantages to using these dbs over just using
XML files?
The only thing I think I might miss is stored procedures. Balanced
against that is the ease of transferring xml files if I decide to
populate from an alternate source.
Any good discussions on this issue?
Cheers.
