CoreData is not a database (according to Marcus Zarra -- and he should know). Even though it *can* use an SQLite data store (and most people do that), it doesn't depend upon SQLite functionality. SQLite is built-in and available pretty much everywhere, but you need to learn a bit of SQL. On A

I would recommend taking a look into the newly released Realm (http://realm.io). I’ve been using it for the last couple of weeks and I’d bet it’s a solid alternative to SQL base databases / ORMs (SQLite). APIs are really easy to grasp and queries to the database are human-friendly and powerful.
