Using a database would be overkill in my opinion. Databases are best suited to dealing with large amounts of data. I've suggested it elsewhere already, but I might as well add to this discussion by saying it again here: I think that all text configuration files that are used by Revit should be replaced with JSON format. It's a "text" based format but it is not free-form. It is highly structured, through its syntax, yet extremely flexible because it doesn't force you to use a particular schema. JSON is perfect to storing and transmitting structured data.

 

I invite you to take a peek at JSON here (I am not affiliated with this site, just found it to be a good primer for beginners)
