BAC spam
This article appears to have been spammed by the Bohica Associates Corporation.
Indeed. From the description of the BACEngine, it isn't even a database engine but an XMLised interface to any random SQL server. Even if it was a database engine, the place to describe its internal workings is not in the middle of a paragraph about database engines in general, but on its own page.
Definition
FYI, it's common in the industry for database engine to be used interchangeably with database server (especially for folks who have worked with/for IBM - see IBM DB2 for many examples). I think it's used more often that way than as a synonym for storage engine (as suggested here). —Preceding unsigned comment added by 12.155.161.170 (talk) 02:33, 18 April 2011 (UTC)
What is an engine?
Why is there not an article for a general computing engine, of which a database engine is a particular type?
Some already existing examples that fall into this class:
