Python consumer application with database

I want to implement a simple application (for Windows), mainly for data collection and I should be able to run some queries.

I can produce an exe file from the python code, but I don't want to install the database separately, rather I'd include it in an installer. I think some other applications do the same or they require MySQL to be installed -- not in development mode -- since I saw in Windows' Programs and Features that there are some MySQL installations.

So my question is: Is there a way to use MySQL or a specific preparation method of an application so I am able to use some database operations inclusive saving data? Remark: any database would work, I was referring to MySQL because I suspect I saw some examples.

You could use Pyinstaller to make an exe out of your database and Python file. Python natively supports sqlite so you don't have to install anything extra if you use that.
