Which is better- MSAccess or mySQL???
Hello,
Well i'm preparing to launch my new site. Since i want to start with little investments i plan to go for linux hosting with mysql support and 10mb space.
But before i start i just want to know whether 10 mb space will be enough during the first 2 to 3 months. Since i wont be using graphics in this site my concern is only abt the database. Suppose there is a directory containing a list of sites based on catagories and there are a record of 1000 websites in it with their url, title, discription, etc. wht would be its file size.
Please reply to me fast coz i'm already behind my schedule.

Ohh and to answer your question if your server is a linux box then go with MYSQL, otherwise got with MSAccess.

I would go with MySQL.
File based systems like MsAccess always have problems. I have used MsAccess and MS SQL, but not MySQL.

access is very limited on the amount of rows you can have
if your running something small it will be alright

OK I think you all know I am a big MS supporter but this is from what I tested / used.
I much rather use MSDE over MySQL Server. Though I would need to go out and get a GUI tool to manage it. Hmmm I personaly love Windows Servers over Linux (More powerful aka ASP.NET).
I currently use Windows 2003 & IIS 6 along with SQL Server 2000 and I am totaly happy with it. BTW MSDE is a clone of SQL Server 2000 but with limitations.

Lol, I just used a hacked version of MSSQL 2000, works like a charm. As for hosting I am with rick on this one. Windows all the way :-). Heck, pay me that $20 per month and I'll host your website on a windows server with php and mysql and 10mb? Don't even bother with that one. Log files are going to be more than that if you do enough transactions.

lol I really am not that good with ASP but I can design cool little apps with ASP.NET and SQL Server.
BTW I don't want to learn ASP since it's very outdated. SEO Joe have you been waitng for ASP.NET 2.0 to come out? I know I have.

didnt even know there was a 2.0 lol :P Ive been so busy lately ive kind of lost touch of all that stuff. One things for sure, if it helps save me time on shit then im all for it. thats the whole reason one would upgrade for asp to .net. who would have thought that we would have had to hand code that calendar control at one time in time  |
