SQL Server Express LocalDB Embedded?

  • I am going to write a single user personal application and I’m trying to decide which database system to choose. SQLite and Access (Jet) are contenders because they are embedded and do not require a server service to be running and I’m wondering if SQL Server Express LocalDB can be configured similarly? https://omegle.onl/

  • The full-fledged Express Edition runs as a service. But, localdb runs in user-space so it could serve for a single-user application. Although, I mainly think of localdb as an aide for development and testing, but that may be just my perception.

    As for the choice, I'm an SQL Server guy, so I might pick localdb because I'm more used to that. But I believe that Windows comes with SQLite, which would be a strong argument for SQLite.
