Dropbox Instead of MySQL?

[Gals]

Hi!

I have read the Dropbox tutorial and i had an idea...
can i upload & download a DB-file from the dropbox account instead of using MySQL?
i mean that if i have a program that using SQLite and now i want the database to be in online-state, can i use dropbox (assuming i have an account) to replace the DB-file every time it changed? what about the security risks?...

Thank you very much!
Gal

Bad idea, how you are going to cotrol multiple access?¿

The normal way is:

a) using a local db file in the path of the app
b) use mysql and php to getting works

You have to know some knowledge about php development and how to start to works with your server and mysql to create databases,tables,etc

You can also consider Parse.com as an alternative to a remote database: Parse library (beta) - simple backend solution - Page 2
