IVR with JavaScript or PHP

[snax68]

Hi,
we are going to develop an IVR in which we have to check a pin code entered via DTMF against a database server (Ms SQL server or oracle) and then interact with a web services for authentication before continuing the call.

Which is your suggested choice between JavaScript and PHP for developing such IVR?

Many thanks,
John

Hi,

Both options would work for the IVR, but if you want to use MsSQL or Oracle, Yate doesn't have support to connect to any of them (just mysql, postgresql, sqlite). To use MsSQL or Oracle you would need to use PHP because you can use the php functions to connect to any of the two databases. From Javascript on only have access to the databases defined in Yate's configuration files.
