Fitting within the resource constraints of today’s mobile devices, SQL Server Compact’s small embedded footprint is under 2MB in size, making it easy to create and deploy database applications over the Internet without jeopardizing great performance or a rich feature set.
Develop robust database applications that run on all Windows platforms including desktop, Pocket PC, Smartphone and Tablet PC.
Combining familiar programming models (SQL Syntax and ADO.NET) common with other SQL Server applications, developers can apply their existing T-SQL skills immediately while leveraging the application code across multiple SQL Server platforms to save development effort and costs.
As database requirements grow, developers can leverage investments in SQL Server Compact and T-SQL to scale to more powerful editions of SQL Server, including SQL Server Express, SQL Server Workgroup, or SQL Server Enterprise Edition.
Supporting three options for data synchronization, merge replication, synchronization services for ADO.Net and Remote Data Access (RDA), developers and administrators have flexibility over data access while security configurations offer data security protection.
