Valentina is a stand-alone, requiring no server, therefore ideally suited to CD-ROM distributed products.
It is easier to set up than mySQL.
And it is blazingly fast so it wins out in situations where you need a local, single-user data store to support Rev app that is not going to be networked.
I had my "Web app" glasses on when I evaluated it.
But one thing: as far as I can tell, I don't have to pay a dime to distribute mySQL-based apps unless I need to deliver the mySQL database with it, which is something nobody would do except for a pretty high-end enterprise solution which was being deployed off a local server.
