Using Unity to connect to a Database

Questions & Answers
1

I'm interested in developing a very simple ranking system using my webhost.

I'm not quite sure how to go about accessing the db and checking for ranks and inserting ranks.

Basically, do I use C# to connect to the db. Run a SQL query on the database. Figure out if the player's current score is higher than any higher in the DB. IF so then insert.

To show the rankings, access the db, retrieve all the ranks. and display them in the unity program?

OR do I use like PHP and do this stuff? I don't know much about php but I found a tutorial for php/mysql.

Any advice and help is greatly appreciated. Thanks
