Assume that I have a third-party database application with SDK that can be used to retrieve data out of the database in XML.
On the other side, I have developed a website using Laravel framework of PHP. The website is supposed to display data from the database of the application.
In regards to above I have the following questions:
Thank you in advance.
I have to agree with @Serge in the comments - there are many ways to do this because it is a very broad question.
My answer was mostly going to deal with how regularly the third party database was going to be updated but judging from your comments, I'm assuming it will be fairly often? In which case, I would likely connect directly to the third party database from your laravel app using the firebird driver found here: https://github.com/jacquestvanzuydam/laravel-firebird (Please note, I have never used this so I cannot comment on it's quality) instead of writing a C# web service. I don't know much about firebird itself but you will likely want to connect using an SSH tunnel or VPN for security reasons.
Then I would either store data in MySQL if you know it isn't likely to change very often (in this case you would use a laravel command, run on a schedule, to pull data out of firebird every [X] days/hours/minutes depending on the data) or, if the data is likely to change on each potential web request, using some form of caching system (redis, memcache, file cache etc) to speed up the web requests.
Sorry if that isn't particularly helpful - if you can provide more information maybe I can help you out further :)
Good luck!
