Ditto
Ditto is the only mobile database with built-in edge device connectivity and resiliency, enabling apps to synchronize without relying on a central server or constant cloud connectivity. With billions of edge devices and deskless workers driving operations and revenue, businesses are hitting the limits of what traditional cloud architectures can offer. Trusted by Chick-fil-A, Delta, Lufthansa, Japan Airlines, and more, Ditto is pioneering the edge-native revolution, transforming how businesses connect, sync, and operate at the edge. By eliminating hardware dependencies, Ditto’s software-driven networking is enabling businesses to build faster, more resilient systems that thrive at the edge – no Wi-Fi, servers, or cloud required.
Through the use of CRDTs and P2P mesh replication, Ditto's technology enables you to build collaborative, resilient applications where data is always available and up-to-date for every user, and can even be synced in completely offline situations. This allows you to keep mission-critical systems online when it matters most.
Ditto uses an edge-native architecture. Edge-native solutions are built specifically to thrive on mobile and edge devices, without relying solely on cloud-based services. Devices running Ditto apps can discover and communicate with each other directly, forming an ad-hoc mesh network rather than routing everything through a cloud server. The platform automatically handles the complexity of discovery and connectivity using both online and offline channels – Bluetooth, peer-to-peer Wi-Fi, local LAN, WiFi, Cellular – to find nearby devices and sync data changes in real-time.

Realm
Realm is an innovative, mobile-centric open-source object database specifically engineered to operate seamlessly on phones, tablets, and wearable devices. By offering a straightforward, object-oriented data model, it eliminates the necessity for an Object-Relational Mapping (ORM) layer, allowing developers to create models using standard classes in popular programming languages such as Swift, Java, Kotlin, C#, JavaScript, Dart, and C++. Its design prioritizes high efficiency and minimal memory footprint through techniques like zero-copy architecture, lazy loading, and multi-version concurrency control (MVCC), ensuring safe operations across multiple threads. Realm's live objects and collections synchronize automatically across threads, providing a foundation for reactive programming methodologies. Furthermore, it allows for the establishment of intricate data structures by enabling relationships between objects through links and backlinks. Developers can also take advantage of tools like Realm Studio to explore and modify local Realm databases, facilitating integration with a variety of platforms, including React Native, Flutter, Xamarin, and Node.js. This adaptability makes Realm a compelling choice for developers looking to manage data efficiently in their mobile applications.

CloudKit
CloudKit serves as a cloud-based framework that allows developers to store application data in iCloud, facilitating synchronization across multiple devices and the web. It automatically syncs data on various devices and web platforms, making it convenient for users. By utilizing app containers, CloudKit ensures that the data for each application remains isolated, thus avoiding any crossover with other applications. The framework features specialized databases and zones that enable developers to neatly categorize app information based on access type or functionality. Additionally, developers have the option to configure fields in private CloudKit databases to be encrypted, thus enhancing the security of data both in storage and while being transmitted. The CloudKit Console acts as a web-based management tool, allowing developers to oversee server activity, manage containers, maintain database schemas, and modify test data throughout the development process. Furthermore, it includes telemetry charts that provide insights into performance, reliability, and usage metrics, along with logs that help in assessing app performance while ensuring user privacy is preserved. Overall, CloudKit offers a comprehensive set of tools that streamline app development and data management in the cloud.
