Android Java connect to online database

Question

Okay so i have a database hosted with 1and1.com from my website..

How can i from android connect the database and store info and also retrieve info from the app?

Answer 1

You can't access a remote database from your android directly. From what I understand, you need to do CRUD operations on the server DB i.e. you want the changes to be reflected on the server side. The best way to do this is to expose your CRUD operations over WebServices and consume them in your android app.
