Microsoft will release embedded databases for small devices.

Last Thursday, Bao Luo, Microsoft's senior vice president of Server applications, elaborated on Microsoft's design goals for the next two editions of SQL Server.

He also said that sales of SQL Server 2005 shocked company officials and contributed 20% in revenue growth over the past two fiscal quarters.

Bao Luo said that Microsoft will release the ctp SQL Server Everywhere Edition this summer and plans to officially release the product in the second half of this year. SQL Server Everywhere is an embedded database used to store data on small devices such as mobile phones.

Bao Luo said that Microsoft has developed an embedded database product for internal use, but has not published it as a commercial product.

Database giants such as Oracle, IBM, and Sybase have launched embedded database products. In addition, the open-source community also has several embedded database products, including Sleepycat.

Bao Luo said that Microsoft has identified some trends in the field of data and storage. These trends will determine that there will be fewer and fewer SQL Server features.

He said that Microsoft predicts that the data volume will continue to grow rapidly; storage costs will continue to drop sharply, and will reach 100 US dollars and 1 TB by next year; mobile phones, cameras, and digital Walkman products will store more and more data.

To adapt to these changes, Microsoft is investing in technologies to better store images, music files, and other unstructured data. Engineers are also improving tools for data analysis and database management, Boro said.

Bao Luo pointed out that in order to make it easier for client devices and servers to share data, Microsoft will invest in development tools that make data more convenient to be synchronized between computers.

He said that people would not store all the data in the central database, nor would they "Put 1 TB of data in their pockets ".
