Unfortunately, for developers, TBDITW don't allow change column names, datatypes, nullability, etc... At least, no without large efforts (like creating a new table, migrating all data to new table, dropping constraints & table, creating a table with correct columns, copying data back, recreating constraints...)

So is still necessary to develop in another database of preference (to get speed and productivity), then migrate to Derby... and cross fingers to not need change anything after app is in production, because changing a column on a table with million of records take hours... and need too much attention to not make mistakes, then I give it up. Forget. I can't deal with Derby in production, not now... I'll be very happy when this would be possible.

Anyway, it's a great database... work like a charm in static database schemas...


Sorry by the rant,

Richter

As you may or may not have seen on the blogosphere, build 88 of Mustang includes Java DB 10.2, Sun's supported distribution of Derby 10.2.

This is great news, both for our team and for developers. Developers get the Best Database In the World (TM) out-of-the box, and Derby will likely get a lot more users and attention!
