将Android应用程序连接到MySQL数据库[关闭]

Question

I've designed an android app connected to remote MySQL database using PHP for the purpose of inserting data from the app to the database.

Currently I put PHP file in a local server XAMPP but in this case the server has to be always available so the application could work correctly.

Is there any other places to put or upload the PHP file to be online so anyone can test the application without the need for my local Server to be available.

Note that I can not upload it on the same MySQL database server because it already designed before.

You can use WAMP sever on your system(PC or laptop) and put it online as shown. Just you have to do is to replace the IP from 'localhost' to 'xxx.xx.xx.xx' in your database connection file.

However, if you want your server available for 24 * 7, you can use some free web hosting services like 000webhost.com (and many others. search on google). They give some free space for hosting sites and apps with back end having PHP.
