You need to have server side application that is listening for request sent through HttpClient request, process it and return result to caller. Often best way to retrun data is in JSON object that is easy to parse

What about solution without server side application? The SQL-lite is the thing that comes up everywhere? Can it be found as a DB server that is connectable from android application?

Depends on situation. If you do not need to share data with outside world you will do with internal database. However if there is a reason for interaction, querying external sources is need it. If you decide to save result in local for period of time that is up to you
