Hi. I need to select an embedded Java db for use in my company's Java client. We are looking for a well-supported, JDBC complient, completely transparent embedded database. So far, my poking around on the web turned up IBM's CloudScape and PointBase's embedded as 2 good candidates. Does anyone here have experience with these products? Is one of them better than the other? Is there something better than either of them? Thanks!

If you don't consider open source as "not-well-supported", I suppose the following two could also be options for you: http://mckoi.com/database/ http://hsqldb.sourceforge.net/ Kind regards, Carl -- Carl Rosenberger db4o - database for objects - http://www.db4o.com Back to top David Morse Guest Posted: Wed Nov 05, 2003 6:51 pm    Post subject: Re: CloudScape vs. PointBase ?

Can you provide some [independent] evidence to support these claims about features, performance, support, price, etc.?
