Answer from AI
When developing Android applications, I used several types of databases:
-
SQLite — an embedded relational database available on all Android devices. Used for storing structured data with SQL queries.
-
Room — a wrapper library over SQLite that simplifies database operations by providing a convenient API and support for annotations to define entities and DAOs.
-
SharedPreferences — for storing small key-value pairs, such as user settings.
-
Realm — an object-oriented database used for more complex cases requiring high performance and ease of use.
The choice of database depends on the application's requirements and the volume of data.
