[Asterisk-Users] Realtime and Asterisk Database

[Daniel Salama]

I've read on the wiki that the Asterisk Database is mainly (or only) 
used for manipulating the dial plan (e.g. extensions.conf). I know that 
RealTime can be used for much more than that (i.e. sip.conf, iax.conf, 
etc).

My question is: if I had two management applications, one that uses 
RealTime and one that uses Asterisk Database, and all I wanted is to 
manipulate the dial plan, which would be more efficient/recommended to 
use - RealTime or Asterisk Database?

Thanks,
Daniel
