About the Siebel Database Server

The Siebel Database Server stores the data used by Siebel eBusiness Applications. Siebel Dedicated Web Clients (Siebel Mobile Web Clients in connected mode), Siebel Tools Clients, and Siebel Server components connect directly to the database server and make changes in real time. Siebel Mobile Web Clients download a subset of the server data to use locally, periodically synchronizing with the database server through the Siebel Server to update both.

Installation and configuration of the Siebel Database Server software configures the Siebel Database automatically.
