With UniDAC, what's the best DB for sandboxed apps in MacOS X?

Post by Cilleruelo » Mon 03 May 2021 14:52

I have an application for windows with FMX. I've tried it in MacOS X and works very well. I've tried the application with Interbase toGo, but this database has important limitations.

Anyone has deployed an application with UniDAC for MacOS using intensively a DB?.

The obvious response is SQlite, but I've discarded it because I need a hard data type inside the DB.

Firebird doesn't have an embedded version for macOS X. This is the general handicap I found in most options, that I need to deploy DB separately of the App. And I want the app in the AppStore.

What's your experience?

We don't normally advise users on the technology stack beyond our database components as the choice depends on the business logic of an application. You may search for answers on dedicated resources, such as Stackoverflow. Could you clarify what you mean by "a hard data type inside the DB"?
