ITTIA DB SQL 3.3 Embedded RDMBS
ITTIA DB SQL version 3.3 introduces new tools for software developers, in the form of a custom memory allocator and graphical database editing utility. This makes ITTIA DB SQL even more suitable for embedded relational data storage in device applications.
UsinA white paper from ITTIA R&D, Confident Memory Management on Embedded Devices, explains how to determine the database memory requirements for an application. The development kit for ITTIA DB SQL also includes an example application that demonstrates the process.
The ITTIA SQL Browser utility was also released alongside version 3.3. This graphical tool is used during prototyping, development, and quality assurance to quickly open and query ITTIA DB SQL databases. No configuration is required to copy database files from a device and open them directly. It can also connect to devices running the ITTIA DB SQL server. The full power of SQL queries can be used with any ITTIA DB database file, even if SQL is not used on the device itself. Tables and query results can be exported with this utility, and binary large objects can be loaded and saved to files.
