My guess is that 90+ percent of all software written is database and business automation related.

I though about 90% were of the "Elf Bowling" variety.


If the application is primarily computational instead of data management oriented, I would probably not choose CoreData. I doubt Core Data can substantially automate or improve a ray tracer, a fractal generator, a PDF viewer, an industrial equipment controller, a low level DVD burner, many games, etc.

At least true for Core Data 1.0. They've left themselves a lot of room to grow.


Actually, I'd pull the PDF viewer out of that list, since you could do some rather interesting things with large documents with a lot of reference.
