Not sure what you mean with service.

You can directly connect to a remote database with JdbcSQL. This is only relevant for local apps.

Thanks for responding immediately. What i mean is web services like PHP script, ASP web api, etc.
Client are winform apps and B4A apps (for sending the requests and handling the responses ).
Both connect to remote database (MySQL/MariaDB).
I like using jRDC2 ... but seems not compatible with winform app.
Thats why i need some suggestions ...
Is web services the best option i have for this ?
thanks.

jRDC2 is very good when working with B4X clients. It will require some work to create a .Net client.

You can always create a web service and call it from any client including B4A.
