What kind of online database should I use for my python app?
#1
I'm developing a Python app and I need to store data online so that I can use the app on several computers and all can have access to the same data. I have some basic knowledge of mysql but can I buy mysql hosting service without having to buy a domain? Or should I go for a non sql service like mongodb? Does anyone know any good hosting services that you can recommend?

It will be a rather small database so I don't need anything fancy. This is very new for me and it has mostly given me headache trying to figure out so I'm happy for all ideas.

In that case, for ease of use, keeping the database as one file which can easily be packaged with your code,
and considering your requirements sqlite3 (which is built into python) will do the job.

The problem is that I want the data to be accessible to more than one computer so using sqlite is not an option I'm afraid. I need to put it somewhere online.
