The database always has structured data, like rows, columns, and bases
LocalDB is an excellent solution for learners, beginners, and projects of negligible size; it is very good. Any startup can use a local database to start. Once they grow beyond its limits, they can migrate to a MS SQL server that's also available on-premises. I rate it ten out of ten.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:

"This tool help us build apps quicker and faster."
"The most valuable feature of LocalDB is the connection between the application and DB."
"Tibero is very easy to setup and maintain."

"It is incredibly fast, much faster than Oracle in terms of compiling and processing speeds, very reliable and secure, never crashes or gets overloaded, the true data never gets falsified or corrupted, it is very easy to port your projects over, and it is considerably cheaper than any other software on the market."
"Tibero is a relational database management system, which supports disaster recovery, active cluster, active storage, etc."

Cons

"It is only for a small amount of data. Local DB is made for the purpose of small-volume optics."
"The internal connection features of LocalDB could improve."
"The initial setup is complex and requires a skilled person."
"The storage limit is about 10GB, so for medium to big databases it is not applicable."
"The ALM features can be improved, but the database by itself is reliable."
"The solution needs to create a management tool. Right now, the solution has tools for creating a local installation, but it's too simplistic. We need something that's a bit more complex so that we can extend the tools with our scripts."
"There could be more user friendly FAQs online and included in the software."
"The knowledge base is quite small and should be expanded."
"Manual installation is a bit tricky, but one can get used to it."
"In PL/SQL code, there is a scope of improvement. We expect more PL/SQL packages should be included in the next release."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The licensing cost is too high for LocalDB."
"The fees are fair."

"The price of Tibero is cheaper than that of Oracle."
