What database is used in android? How does it differ from client-server database management systems?..

Answer / nc1-309

Database is used in Android is SQLite

Since Android was created, we app developers have been using SQLite to store our local data. Sometimes directly with SQL statements, sometimes using an Object-Relational Mapper (ORM) as an abstraction layer, but either way, we've been using SQLite at the end of the day.

SQLite is different from client-server database management system :-

SQLite is a server-less database and is self-contained. This is also referred to as an embedded database which means the DB engine runs as a part of the app. On the other hand, MySQL requires a server to run. MySQL will require a client and server architecture to interact over a network.
