Building Database-Powered Mobile Applications
Abstract
Almost all mobile applications use persistency for their data. A common way for complex mobile applications is to store data in local relational databases. Almost all major mobile platforms include a relational database engine. These databases engines expose specific API (Application Programming Interface) to be used by mobile applications developers for data definition and manipulation. This paper focus on database-based application models for several mobile platforms (Android, Symbian, Windows CE/Mobile and Windows Phone). For each selected platform the API and specific database operations are presented.
