Hi all,
I'm looking at a site where there will be a lot of articles, all of which
will be added once, and rarely edited again...
Let's say each article consisted of 6 data types:
- id
- author
- authorEmail
- datePublished
- introduction
- bodyText
I'm considering:
a) storing this data in a MySQL table (a fairly simple query)
b) storing this data in a pseudo XML format like:
<id>24</id>
<author>Justin French</author>
<author_email>[EMAIL PROTECTED]</author_email>
<date_published>2003-11-28</date_published>
<intro>This is my intro</intro>
<body>This is my text and html -- say 1000 words?</body>
I plan on doing my own performance tests, but I'd love to hear any opinions
about which would form of data retrieval would cause less of a performance
burden on the server (MySQL is on the same box as the htdocs and apache).
TIA,
Justin
