Database Creation and Communication | Create Account, Login Authentication, Database Queries

Hello:

What are the best methods/techniques for using databases for storing and accessing information for your applications.

I have found possible solutions that use PHP/JSON, PHP/SQLITE3, and PHP/MySQL, etc.

If you have worked with databases (Core Data, maybe), how would you create the mechanism for database communication for the following tasks:

  1. Create Account
  2. Authenticate Login
  3. Forgot Username/Password Reset
  4. Other general operations as defined

Thanks!!

I would recommend you to take iOs course to build a Self-Destructing Message iPhone App where you will learn basic user creation and authentication using Parse. And if you want to build your own database, look for Rails or PHP tracks here at TreeHouse.

Thank you!!

I will follow the course. Gained a lot of insights from the lessons. I understand a bit of information of PHP/MYSQL. However, I want to be able to exchange information from other users. Perhaps the lesson you mentioned will provide the solutions required.
