IndexedDB
IndexedDB was introduced by Oracle and became popular very quickly. It's a Not Only SQL (NoSQL) database. The IndexedDB API is a more capable and far more complex API. IndexedDB has the following significant benefits:

In IndexedDB, we can store a large amount of structured data, images, arrays, and whole objects; you just need to index them with a key. It follows the same origin policy, so we cannot access data across different domains. If you still use Web SQL...
