I've looked around trying to find an answer to this question, but have so far been unsuccessful. I have a current version of an Android mobile application that stores items in the local database, and I'm trying to hook it up to a 'cloud' database (not sure if this is the right term) so that other people that download the app will be able to view and post things to the database.
I have an ec2 service set up, with my LAMP stack installed. I have the database set up on this server ready to go. How do I go about hooking up the Android application so that it can communicate (insert/view/delete items) with the database? I am a new developer so any help/insight/guidance you have is much appreciated!
You haven't mentioned the type of database you have setup on cloud. I am assuming it to be some kind of relational database (eg MySQL). You can use standard JDBC connection from a regular java code but it is not yet possible (supported) to do it directly from Android code.
I faced a similar issue, what I did was this:
There may be other better solutions but I could not find any and tried this on my own, it worked like a charm, multiple times.
After writing the previous answer, I kept on thinking of alternate solution.
FYI: This may or may NOT work !
