    <p>I am looking for a Database software where I can store 1TB+ Data.<br> The average size of a row is going to be 5KB.<br> I have been doing my homework on this for the past month and I have shortlisted two software:</p> <ol> <li>SQLite</li> <li>MySQL MyISAM</li> </ol> <p>Essentially, the database should not use too much additional data to store rows and it should be ACID compliant.<br> I am open to any other DB software suggestion as well.<br> The application I plan to use is going to have one concurrent connection only.</p> <p>SQLite is good and meets the requirements except that, when you delete a ROW it will not be delete the data from the file and keep the freed up resources till the data is overwritten by new data. One needs to use VACUUM to clean the free resources which can take quite a lot time and resources. SQLite is also very efficient in storing the data with respect to its size. It doesn't add much data to the contents. SQLite also doesn't allow to separate the INDEX file so that it can be put on a SSD for faster lookups.</p> <p>MySQL MyISAM is good and it is also VERY efficient in storing the data and doesnt add contents. But MyISAM is not ACID compliant and it can lead to data loss incase of a power failure, etc. INNODB on the otherhand is not efficient to store the data and additional data it adds to store each row is pretty high compared to MyISAM.</p> <p>So is there any Free Database software which overcomes these constraints or this is the best option I have?</p>

    3. COIs the efficiency of disk storage really your biggest concern when selecting a database engine? I haven't seen that as a concern since hard drives cost a dollar per megabyte...

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
