sql

I am hoping that someone may have experience with this, since the discountasp site is very lacking in straightforward answers.

I am building a lightweight web application and have decided to have sql ce as the database for it. Two questions regarding this:

Do i need to get an actual database hosted as well as the site, in order for it to work?

Do you know if discountasp supports the use of sql ce (not with webmatrix or any cms builds, completely custom)? If they don't, do you have any experience/recommendations with getting this done?
