Question: I am building a site that is mainly a news portal site about several
categories of a specific subject... There will be other elements too but it
will be mainly a news portal site. What makes more sense - to create separate
databases for each category and then build news and othertables under each db,
or can I just use one db and build many tables under it, news tables for each
category, and other tables for each category. In the long run, what makes more
sense? As far as backing up, updating data, add more tables in time, writing
php to pull data, other aspects i can not thinnk of...Any advice? This is the
first time I am creating dtabases so I am having hard time to see the long
term...I mean, medium size or big newsportal websites for example, how would
they do, with a lot of different databases and few tables under, or with few
databases with many tables under? Thanks
