I'm not sure I understand what you mean by multiple systems.
Can you give examples of the benefits of this? E.g. if app1
is using db1 and
app2 is using db2 then what would be gained with two Derby
systems over the single one that is supported today?


For example if app1 relies on that the derby.system.home points to
location1 and app2 wants derby.system.home to be set to location2.

It's an interesting idea, would require that every connection request
through DriverManager include an attribute that indicates which system
should be used. For a DataSource the system identifier could be a property.


An alternate approach is to not rely on system functionality or system
properties. Make the database self-contained, store properties within
the database. This works today.

Wow great news. Is there a way I can turn that back on?
