Java DB
Apache Derby is a relational database management system (RDBMS) hidden behind Java DB. This database system is implemented 100% in Java and can therefore be used as a platform-independent system. The Java DB is very small for a complete database management system; it can be delivered directly with its application because no special installation and no further actions for operating a database are necessary. Java DB is therefore predestined for use in a rich client application. Since Java Platform 6, Oracle delivers the client database Java DB by default; the NetBeans IDE naturally supports the Java DB in terms of management and server action.
