IndexedDB
Internet Explorer 10 and Windows Store apps using JavaScript introduce support for the Indexed Database API ("IndexedDB"). IndexedDB enables you to store structured data. Unlike cookies and DOM Storage, IndexedDB provides features that enable you to group, iterate, search, and filter JavaScript objects.
The IndexedDB API is defined by the World Wide Web Consortium (W3C)'s Indexed Database API specification, which is currently in the Working Draft stage.
