realm - An easy to use mobile database and object framework
summary
Realm is a mobile object database that stores and returns Java objects (example Dog and Person models) with no SQL, using transactions like executeTransaction async and query results that auto-update via change listeners on the Android main loop. It uses memory-mapped MVCC for speed, requires re-querying per thread (cannot pass Realm objects across threads), supports migrations and a Gradle plugin, offers AES-256 encryption by supplying a key, exposes RX via asObservable, and now includes the Realm Mobile Platform sync server for client‑server syncing.
