Almost all Servoy applications utilize a database to store user data and application metadata. Servoy can connect to any database that has a JDBC driver available. Servoy provides a database, Sybase SQL Anywhere, for you if you do not already have a database management system (DBMS).
Creating a New Database in Sybase SQL Anywhere
In Servoy Developer, you may create a new SQL Anywhere database from the Solution Explorer tree.
- In the Servoy Developer Solution Explorer tab, expand the Database Servers node (under Resources) and right click on a SQL Anywhere database (all the example databases provided by Servoy are SQL Anywhere) to show the popup menu.
- Select Create Sybase Database.
- Enter a name for the database in the dialog window.
- A dialog will recommend to restart Servoy Developer. Click OK and restart Servoy Developer.
- Your database will appear
It is best practice to create your data model (tables, primary keys, foreign keys, and fields)
