    I'm part of a team working on a school project that requires a web app. We're using Unity, with either it's web player or webGL. We're currently researching our options and testing things out, and i'll report back here.

    But in the mean time, has anyone had any success with this? SQL, mySQL, SQLlite, various database plugins, etc. Is it possible and what has worked for you?

    Thanks
    Eliot

    You'd just serialize your data and use WWWForm to send it would probably be the easiest. You could also look at interfacing calls with JavaScript on your web page and using something like Socket.IO to communicate with your server, depending on whether you're using a web socket based platform, like Node.js or just straight REST.
