VistaDB allows you to quickly embed a complete SQL database engine in your Visual Studio managed applications. XCopy our 1 MB .net assembly and your single VDB3 database file to your customers.
We are the easiest to deploy .net database for desktop or website usage. Deployment is xcopy and done - simple.
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.
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.
VistaDB is a serverless embedded SQL desktop engine that is fully managed. The database engine is transactional, requires zero configuration, and attempts to closely match SQL Server 2005 for TSQL syntax and TSQL datatypes.
Advanced features like updatable SQL Views, true referential integrity, cascading updates / deletes, TSQL stored procedures, and CLR stored procs make VistaDB the most advanced embedded sql desktop database engine.
VistaDB provides a highly compatible namespace with SqlClient as well. If you are used to developing with the SqlClient namespace you will instantly recognize all of the VistaDB objects and namespaces. We are ADO.NET Provider Factory 2 compliant, which means you can write generic Provider Factory code and change out the actual database used at runtime. This makes it possible to build a single version of your application that uses both VistaDB and SQL Server from the same codebase. Many companies use VistaDB on the desktop and SQL Server for larger deployments saving them support and maintenance of two codebases.
.NET Developers can build embedded database applications for desktops and web servers. VistaDB fully supports the latest 32 and 64 Bit Windows and IIS deployment scenarios from a single fully managed DLL. Xcopy deployment of the entire database engine means you can embed the engine within your application or website without requiring special permissions or complex installs on the target system.
Full Visual Studio integration means you have the familiar tools you need to be productive quickly, including full Server Explorer integration.
Powerful graphical database admin tools are included (some include the c# source code) to allow you to ship a complete database admin tool for your application with very little work. You can even rebrand the DBA Admin tool to make the dba tool a part of your application for your users or DBA.
