Database for a library
Hello,
I'm building a web application for a library but I faced a problem NTICE: This web app includes a feature that you can read the books online I have to save the books either in the database (mysql for sure) or on the hard disks but I preferred DB choice because of many befits (search, speed, time and many others) The problem is how to save the book, till now I have three choices: 1- save the whole book in one record of type long text (downside is the bandwidth ,,, it requires a lot of bandwidth to transfer the whole book to the user) 2- save each chapter of each book in a record 3- save each page of each book in one record (the downside is the huge amount of records but the benefits are saving bandwidth and easier pagination) I prefer the third choice but is mysql capable of handling this huge amount of records (it maybe be millions because I have over 10,000 book) thanks in advanced |
