I'd also like to know if Hypersonic has both client/server and standalone functionality. For client/server operation I guess it would need a JDBC driver. Is one available for it?
Finally, does it have tools for admin and query? Thanks, Terry -----Original Message----- From: Robert Enyedi [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Tuesday, August 29, 2006 2:07 AM To: Derby Discussion Subject: Derby vs. Hypersonic SQL Hi, We have a MySQL database with around 50 tables and we are thinking about supporting other database engines too. After studying the options on the Java DB engine implementations, it seems that there are two important contenders: Apache Derby and Hypersonic SQL. While our feeling is that Hypersonic SQL is a more mature product, Derby seems to be hyped about a lot these days and it also has quite some history since the days of Informix and Cloudscape. Could you please help in our decision by pointing out some advantages and shortcomings of Apache Derby versus Hypersonic SQL? Thanks, Robert
