DanH is incorrect in his assertion that "There is no remote DB paradigm in Android."
The Android framework supports full standard database JDBC connectivity to databases such as Oracle, SQL Server and MySQL. A direct connection to a remote database is perfectly secure, usable and technically possible particularly if the Android device is connecting via a secure wi-fi network or a GPRS/3G network where the SIM is part of a private APN. Android also supports many technical solutions to supporting offline connectivity that does not just involve REST and web services. Our MobiForms Developer rapid application development tool for example supports the creation of apps that can directly connect to a multitude of back office databases via JDBC. The complementary MobiForms Sync Server also supports bi-directional data replication, synchronisation and offline buffering between just about any back office database or ERP package (such as Oracle Apps, SAP, Navision, Dynamics etc.), and Google Android or others such as Windows Mobile. Supported back office databases include Oracle, SQL Server, Access, Sybase, IBM DB2, SQLite, HSQLDB and MySQL.
