i considering database purpose, have no experience databases don't know if best solution needs. when content in csv format don't know if better save way on own server or saving database. on client request tranform data using php , send json.

  • is database best solution web app? or should stick csv files?
  • if database best choice, please point me tutorial, example or book started?

thanks in advance.

database best solution. if trying pick out individual rows in csv file, there quite overhead in parsing whole file, @ little piece of information. databases on otherhand far more efficient @ this, , in fraction of time.

if using php, common database use mysql, , every host include standard.

here nice tutorial started, google mysql , php, , there huge amount of information on web information. php , mysql very popular, there lot of info out there.
