title: The best database for a C++ and java applications
body: <p>Hi I am making an ATM console application in C++. I am planning to use a database, my friend suggested to use files. However, I want to use a database like mySql, Oracle or sqlServer express. </p>
  
  <p><strong>Q:</strong> Which one of the databases would be more applicable for a C++ application ?</p>
  
  <p>I am also making a second application in java. This is a large library system consisting of hundreds of records. I want to know which database I can use for this application aswell. Is it Oracle, mysql or sqlserver express. I also heard about JDBC. Is it any good ?</p>
  
  <p><strong>Q:</strong> Which one of the databases would be more applicable for a large java application ?</p>
  
  <p>Many Thanks</p>
