Hi All,
Can some one explain me how these blog servers keep blog content?
Is it via a database?
Is it via a XML file which save in a local directory?
I was asked to develop a back end service for a blog/ wiki.
Thanks,
Nirosh. 6 1719
Hi Nirosh,
If you're taking about all websites that have blogs, in general, I assume
most (although, probably all) use databases. Storing static page content
doesn't scale well - and we've come a long way since then ;)

that is a kind of a answer I expected, aprt from blog/ wiki I was also asked
to developed a content management service for the system .. so thought
whether i can use the functions of the content management system to manage
blogs too by saving blog content as XML files.. But ur reply suggest me that
it is a bad approach
Thanks for the reply
Nirosh.

Hi Nirosh,
FYI, there are many content management systems out there, including for
blogs (and probably wikis too). Check out Microsoft's Content Management
Server. Also, check out Community Server, for blog software. If you're
going to write your own you should at least do some research on those
"packaged" solutions to see how they work.

As Dave Sexton points out, there are a number of downloadable examples
already written. You might start with one of those. Also note that storing
blog content as XML rather than in a backend datastore is not new. dasBlog
from http://www.dasblog.info/Features.aspx is one of the most well known
free blog packages that uses XML for storage rather than a database.

Make a search in sourceforge.net I think there there is a free project of a
wiki system
Also make a s earch in the archives of this NG, there have been several
threads relating wiki and how to implement them

I would imagine storing content in XML would be an excellent way to waste
storage space.
Good luck with your project,
