theagent Posted October 15, 2008 Share Posted October 15, 2008 Hello, I'm not sure what I should be using for databasing. I've been developing under MySQL, but I've read it isn't reliable under high-traffic. Is this true? Right now my main concern is coding -- I don't want to code my entire application under MySQL, only to switch over to a different databasing environment to accommodate for high-traffic. Help is appreciated, thanks. PS: Although I'm understanding the coding aspect of development, I hardly know anything when it comes to servers and server maintenance. What do you recommend that I read? Thanks again. Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/128570-databasing-under-high-traffic/ Share on other sites More sharing options...

theagent Posted October 15, 2008 Author Share Posted October 15, 2008 Do you mean "High Performance MySQL"? http://www.amazon.com/High-Performance-MySQL-Optimization-Replication/dp/0596101716/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&s=books&qid=1224104075&sr=8-1 Can MySQL be good for really high traffic stuff? I like MySQL, but I don't want to find this out the hard way. Also, I really need to understand how to configure, run, and maintain servers. Do you know a good book on that? Thanks.
