I am trying to display a real time graph using the data which is coming from a device attached to a external source, the data coming from the device will be a .csv file, now i want to use this data and populate the content in an XML file and display the graph with XML datasource. Is it good doing it using XML or i should go for MySQL database keeping performance in mind? And After parsing the .CSV file line by line, how do i populate the data in XML in C#? Thanks in advance.

CSV –> XML?
Actually XML is used to store hierarchical data, a CSV file is simply a table so why don’t you go for MySQL instead? And yes, writing and parsing XML is not that good when it comes to performance.
