the types, syntax, and such are horrible to work with when coming from other DBMS, but a lot of people do work with it on a regular basis.

Companies, especially here in the philippines, use MSSQL instead of MySQL.

PHP and MSSQL

Post by iyanski »

Coz im planning to make php webservices to access MSSQL rather than using .Net webservices. Which is more efficient? using php to access MSSQL or .Net to MSSQL? I'm more into PHP-MSSQL rather than the other but I would like to know which is more efficient.

I would also like to know if it works faster when using PHP rather than ASP.Net/C#/etc.. to access .Net webservices. Well, there are lots of factors that affects.


cheers,
ian

considering COM and .Net systems aren't fully fleshed out in php, the .Net platform will likely run far faster and better for the time being. But MSSQL has little to do with .Net, overall though. PHP handles that just fine.
