What language better to create a database system? CPP or Python?

Question

I want to create a small database system for a company. The system includes searching and adding stuff to the database. What language is better to build this system?

Answer 1

tldr: c++. Long answer: You can do it with both languages. It would roughly require the same amount of coding. The big difference is the speed of your program, where c++ has a clear advantage. c++ is compiled (good for speed), closer to the machine (also good) and optimized for speed. if you don't really care about performance, I don't see a huge difference between the two. just my 2 cents.
