Rather than being constructed
by hand, database-driven web pages are created dynamically (in real-time)
thus giving a web site visitor an up-to-date view of information stored in
the database. When the information in the database is updated, site
visitors will immediately see the changes that have been made (rather than
having to wait for someone to update one or more static web pages).
- the information that the web site visitor sees on a dynamic web page
can be quickly customized
- clients can do their own maintenance via a set of web-based data
entry forms or by working directly with the database
- the database-driven pages can be easily changed without having to
redo each individual static page in the event that a site's design needs
to be modified
- several different views of the database information can be presented
simultaneously. For example, different sort orders can easily presenting
on a table of data.
- the site visitor can do a search on the items in the database
- in situations where there are hundreds or thousands of items it can
become prohibitive to maintain a static web page for each item and in
those situations a database is almost essential
