I have been using Mysql for a long time, but I have a benchmark Q. Is pgsql , better ? faster ? more reliable than mysql ?
any comment ?
I've only ever used Interbase and now Firebird. Latest release is due any day and is FAST.
Some people say that php is not for a very big enterprise, banking , application !! they said that java or even .NET is better ... I m against that but what do you all think ?
Firebird + PHP work quite happily and will cope with Gigabytes of data. I hate those banking sites that you can not access because 'you don't have Microsoft VM' ( Aliance&Leicester Commercial ! ) while other sites work fine without needing any downloads ( Aliance&Leicester Personal ) Why waste time re-inventing the wheel - use what you are used to :) -- Lester Caine ----------------------------- L.S.Caine Electronic Services
