| | - What is better flat file or database? :: Web development and technology forum. |
| | Flat files are text files stored in the computer file system. | | | Flat files can be looked at by anyone with access to the computer directory where they are stored, so they are useful when information needs to be made available to other people. | | | Flat files are particularly useful for making information available to other software, such as an editing program or a spreadsheet. |

| | Database |
| | Databases are used in many applications, spanning virtually the entire range of computer software. | | | In practice, relational database management systems rewrite ("optimize") queries to perform faster, using a variety of techniques: In the "join" the primary optimisation is obtained through the use of indexes to prevent the building of the complete cross-product which would otherwise be necessary. | | | This doesn't fit well with a SQL database where user-defined types are difficult to define and use, and where the Two Great Blunders prevail: the identification of classes with tables (the correct identification is of classes with types, and of objects with values), and the usage of pointers. |

| | Database Types, Flat-File or Relational? |
| | A single connection to a relational database can access all the tables within that database; whereas a flat file implementation of the same data would result in a new file open operation for each table. | | | One of the main problems with using flat files for even a semi-active database is the fact that it is very prone to corruption. | | | There is no inherent locking mechanism that detects when a file is being used or modified, and so this has to be done on the script level. |

| | Flat File Database Demo |
| | I received a query asking how to use PHP to read from a flat file database and output it as HTML. | | | The 'file pointer' is incremented by one, so the loop will start reading from the next line of the database. | | | Of course flat files won't match the built-in flexibility of something like MySQL, but you are free to program with them in any way you see fit. |
