Will Rhomobile have support for Realm database instead of the default sqlite database in the future.

We don't have this kind of plans currently. What are significant advantages of Realm over sqlite?

Thanks for the info. We will look into advantages of Realm, but as I said we don't have plans currently to support it.
Tau can implement it as a paid feature.

It looks like Realm has it's own ORM. Given that, it might make more sense if you want to use it to implement it as a Rhodes native extension. It wouldn't make much sense to put Rhom ORM over something that already has an ORM.
I don't find SQLite limiting. In fact, quite the opposite. I make extensive use of SQLite views and triggers. (While there is nothing in the Rhodes docs about it, all SQLite features are available.) I actually don't often use the Rhom ORM, instead I use SQL expressions. I don't find performance lacking at all.
I am very skeptical about ALL "spooky database action at a distance" implementations. (I'm afraid including RhoConnect.) Recent exposure to Parse (a failed effort on the part of Facebook that has left thousands - well, 500,000 if you beleive the hype from the past...) of app projects scrambling for the exits) reinforces that skepticism.
