Database in Windows 8

Ibrahim Ersoy

Hi People,

Do you know any Lightweight or not,a suitable Database system works with Windows 8 except SQL Server and SQLLite?

Lately i was working with .resw Resource files but since ResourceWriter doesnt work in Windows Store projects,this option's failed.

So im looking for an easy to use,no-debugging required like SqlLite and gives usability like Sql Server.

is there one such as what im looking for? or should i use XML?

Thank you

SQL CE can be used in Windows 8 but not in Windows Store Applications.Microsoft didnt release any database product to support local data in windows store apps.Without XML and SQLLite options,i dont know what else we can do.So i asked if there are other alternatives for it.

The oldest version of SQLLite needed to re-compile so that was out of my mind.But now i see even an async sqllite version released for windows store apps.Maybe i was looking for an old resource for that :)

Why do you not want to use SQLLite? How about SQL CE? Have you looked at that?
