I'm unsure what you're asking for, but isn't SQLlite suitable as it's used by many applications even on mobile?

- jchrisa 15y agoSQLite runs great on mobile, but it is a data island. The document model provides a foundation for synchronization and conflict detection that the relational model cannot. Specially it becomes very challenging in the relational model to sync a subset of data to each device, while allowing updates to data on any node, regardless of that node's network connection status. That is, with MVCC documents, you can push the partition tolerance of a system much further than with the relational, or even key/value models.
- andrewtj 15y agoHe's not asking for anything. He's pointing out how a different data model allows for solving a different set of problems. The MVCC page on Wikipedia might give you a better background so that you're able to contrast the two models and determine for yourself where they are useful: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Multiversion_concurrency_control http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Multiversion_concurrency_contro...
