Local Database with Silverlight

Question

What would be a good local database for a Silverlight application? The database's main purpose is for local data caching and synchronization services. I do not believe that SQL anywhere or SQLite will work since they use unmanaged code which will not run under the silverlight sandbox

Answer 1

Why don't use a new feature in SL 2 called "Isolated Storage"? It is fully support in local database (like Google Gear) but of course It is not a database. You can use XML file format to keep it.

• pros; User just need to install SL runtime.
• cons; It's not exactly a database
