Hello,
I have a web application created with PHP and mysql, I am looking at
creating a similar version to be held on a single computer without the
need for a server.

Any suggestions as to what would be the most appropriate database to
be use instead of MYSQL that works well with Lazarus?

I thought of sqlite but I a not sure If i need some soft of server.

Thank you.

There are a number of embedded databases that you can use there is
SQLite and TDBF and if you want something with a bit more kick there
is firebird embedded if I remember correctly MySQL has an embedded
version as well that you can buy.

Our company has had very good success with an Embedded Firebird
database. Nice thing is you can move the Firebird database back-and-
forth between an Embedded and full blown DB Server with no code change
at all - just a different connection string.
