Could someone explain to me the different SQLite and RealSQL server? I'm so confused.
SQLite (http://www.sqlite.org) is a single user database engine and it is the one that you can use with the REALSQLDatabase class. We took sqlite (the single user version) and we highly modify it in order to support high concurrency and multiple users working at the same time on the same database, and you can use this new product using the new REALSQLServer and REALSQLDatabaseServer class. The goal here is that for end user everything is completely transparent, because you can just drop your REALSQLDatabase single- user file into the server's folder in order to have a blazing fast and an high concurrency shared database.
I thought RB only supports SQLite, but SQLite has another version for RB that is faster, but cost money.
This is SQLite3ProfessionalPlugin and it is a complete different product from the REALSQLDatabase class even if both uses sqlite3 as database engine. SQLite3ProfessionalPlugin is just a low level way to access sqlite, in fact it doesn't use the RB API at all.
Then someone told me that SQLite has not security even the server version.
I am not sure to understand what you mean here ... but the server has strong military grade encryption built-in.

Is MySQL is still free or is it going to cost money if you include it in your apps?
It costs money.
