Raj; To all reading this response, this is my first response on this list so if I get it a little wrong have patience.
You may want to look at the light weight RDBMS mysql. It is free, easily installed and can be utilized with the companion Workbench to make dealing with the db very easy, a lot like the access interface. You will have good driver support from the java end as well and a lot of documentation and tutorials to get you connected in your web app to your persistence layer. mysql.com Just my two cents and an attempt to give back a little to the community.
