Database Driven Websites
Database sites are dynamic websites that can change and updated with information stored on the backend of the website, based on actions of the user. Some examples of reasons to utilize a Database site would be: a website that stores secure information specific to each user, usually using a client log-in center where the client can enter their password or take another action to see information specific to their account with the website. A social networking / directory site that would allow the user to create and save information or profiles. The database stores information that is not available to everyone, and it serves it up to the website once a specific action is taken. Database development is often used for internal communication networks for employees, between clients and representatives, and much, much more!
There are varying levels of Database development, ranging from storing and feeding simple account information to extremely interactive and personalized site experiences for each individual user.
