Slide MobileDatabase

A mobile database allows data to be accessed from mobile devices over a wireless network. It resides on mobile devices and can communicate with a central database server to synchronize data and handle queries locally without an internet connection. The growing number of smartphones and need for real-time data access anywhere drove the development of mobile databases. They have client-server or peer-to-peer architectures. Mobile databases face challenges from limited bandwidth, resources and disconnections but support important applications in business, healthcare, news and public sectors by providing access to critical data anytime, anywhere.
