Thanks for the reply Roger and I have read the section you mentioned, very informative. I'm not trying to compare the 2 products, but rather trying to find out if my app will work with SQLite. I don't necessarily require a server. My app can work as a web app or web service where clients hit this service and my app will collect the necessary info and write to the DB. So in reality, the web app will be doing all the writing and reading to SQLite. I'm trying to avoid using a traditional database server if SQLite can handle this. I wanted to check here first for guidance to see if SQLite can do this. Thanks, Robel

I suggest reading http://www.sqlite.org/whentouse.html which gives good advice.
