MYSQL Event to update another database table
- by Lee
Hey All,
I have just taken over a project for a client and the database schema is in a total mess. I would like to rename a load of fields make it a relationship database.
But doing this will be a painstaking process as they have an API running of it also. So the idea would be to create a new database and start re-writing the code to use this instead. But I need a way to keep these tables in sync during this process.
Would you agree that I should use MYSQL EVENT's to keep updating the new table on Inserts / updates & deletes??
Or can you suggest a better way??
Hope you can advise !!
thanks for any input I get
