There are several different SQL (Structured Query Language) database servers available on the market today, but the most stable open source solution that is ACID compliant is PostgreSQL, it is far more robust than the more commonly known MySQL. PokerTracker 4 communicates with the PostgreSQL server to read from as well as write to the database tables, the information contained within these tables allows PokerTracker 4 to run filtered queries to display your results in the application or in the HUD.
