什么时候数据库被称为嵌入式数据库？
问题描述：
嵌入式数据库这个术语是否具有与数据库不同的含义？
Does the term 'embedded database' carry different meaning from 'database'?
答
我见过：
- 将嵌入式数据库作为特别为嵌入式空间（移动设备等）设计的数据库系统。
- 在不需要服务器的数据库中嵌入数据库，并嵌入到应用程序中（例如 SQLite ）。这意味着一切都由应用程序管理。
- Embedded database as in a database system particularly designed for the "embedded" space (mobile devices and so on.) This means they perform reasonably in tight environments (memory/CPU wise.)
- Embedded database as in databases that do not need a server, and are embedded in an application (like SQLite.) This means everything is managed by the application.
我个人从来没有看到完全按照维基百科定义的术语，但是这可能是我的错，虽然它类似于我上面的第2号。
I've personally never seen the term used exactly as Wikipedia defines it, but that's probably my fault, although it resembles quite a bit my number 2 above.
