VistaDBEmbedded SQL database engine with Entity Framework support written in C#. Fully relational, ACID Compliant, multi process, transactional, requires zero-configuration, and attempts to closely match SQL Server for syntax and datatypes. |
VistaDB is an Embedded .Net SQL Database Engine VistaDB is an embedded database that executes in process with your application. The database files are a single file that may be renamed in order to be used as a file format for your application. The VistaDB runtime is a single .Net Assembly that may be merged into your application. Most desktop users of VistaDB don't even know they are using us!VistaDB allows you to seemlessly embed our .net database engine into your application for the best possible end user experience. No need to deploy complex servers or multiple editions for 32 and 64 bit platforms. Our single managed assembly handles it all. Entity Framework support is includedEntity Framework for Visual Studio 2008 SP1 and Visual Studio 2010 support is included in VistaDB 4. (We do not support the model first method of EF generation to a database from a model at this time.) Visual Studio 2010 SupportWe fully support the Visual Studio 2010 for Server Explorer integration and deployment of database applications. Our engine is fully managed code that is built to the .Net 2 CLR. That means you can reference VistaDB in any .Net 2 - .Net 4 assembly, and it will auto promote and run within the correct framework for your application. There is no need to worry about which assembly to distribute. From .Net 2 SP1 all the way through .Net 4, 32 and 64 bit are all supported from a SINGLE managed assembly.
