Need database running locally replacing file saving

Post by atlruds »

I am looking for å database that can run locally and take over for my current "saving to file" solution. I need it to be installed and set up automaticly with the rest of the program so that the user doesn't have to set it up or even know that it is there. It has to be able to run locally and not on a central server (though it should be able to do that as well). It has to be able to run under Windows and Linux.

Can MySql, Oracle or Postgre do all/any of this?

Are there others?

Thank you. I just found out that MySQL can be linked into a standalone application. This looks good:)
