Detailed Comparison
The Realm Mobile Platform is a next-generation data layer for applications. Realm is reactive, concurrent, and lightweight, allowing you to work with live, native objects. | It is a Swift toolset to work with SQLite3 databases in a way that is typesafe not just on the Swift side, but down to the SQL schema. Like SwiftGen but for SQLite. It is not an ORM, it doesn’t do type mapping at runtime. |
Feels like Home - Realm’s data structures look like the Objects and Arrays of your language, but provide additional features such as: querying, relationships & graphs, thread safety, and more.;Memory-Efficient - Realm is not built on SQLite. Instead, a custom C++ core is used to provide memory-efficient access to your data by using Realm objects, which usually consume less RAM than native objects.;F-F-Fast! - Realm offers extraordinary performance compared to SQLite and other persistence solutions. | Swift toolset to work with SQLite3 databases;

Very fast;
Dependency free;
