If this is a small single app type database, I would look at either SQLite or
Firebird. Both have .NET data providers available. I haven't used Firebird,
but I have used SQLite a little bit and it is indeed fast and fairly capable -
and very small.

Hello,

I need to store data in some database for my application. I need database
for easy deployment (small size), that is reliable and maybe fast.
What database is best to use in this case?

Thanks in advance,
John

Hello Tom,

SQLite doesn't have cascade update and delete of records in database, so I
don't consider it as good database. What about Firebird? How much is easy to
deploy and how much is size of database compared to Access?

Regards,
John

Matko,

For me listing to your question than any database is good enough. (Although
you have in my opinion not stated your question well if I see your comment
to Tom).

To be able to scale up in feature I would in your case use the SQLExpress or
SQLCompact edition.

In another newsgroup is Bill Vaughn, completely lyric about the last one, I
have myself no expirience with that.

However it depends of course for what you need it, and as you stated it,
again, any database is good as long as you can do a select.
