Lions and Tigers and Bears....
I've always liked that line from 'The Wizard of Oz'. But today it goes something like...
SQL, SQL Express and SQL Everywhere...
SQL Everywhere is a rebranding, with a small change, to the SQL Mobile database that has been available for device applications for some time now. The difference is in the target systems that it can run on.
In the past, SQL Mobile was only for 'mobile' computers, PockerPCs, Tablets, and CE devices. SQL Everywhere opens that target audiance up to all operating systems. This is a great step for those of us who write applications on devices and want to 'share' that data with a desktop application.
For a FAQ and other information, check Steve Lasker's blog entry at http://blogs.msdn.com/stevelasker/archive/2006/04/10/SqlEverywhereInfo.aspx.
