Databases Reference
In-Depth Information
Exporting large databases may or may not work: this
depends on their size, the options chosen, and the web
server's PHP component settings (especially memory size
and execution time).
Saving the Export File on the Server
Instead of transmitting the export file over the network with HTTP, it is possible to
save it directly on the file system of the web server. This could be quicker and less
sensitive to execution time limits, because the whole transfer from server to client
browser is bypassed. Eventually, a file transfer protocol like FTP or SFTP can be used
to retrieve the file, since leaving it on the same machine would not provide good
backup protection.
