Hi Derby Team,

I want to use JavaDB ( Apache derby ) in my application which a commercial one.

I know that its free and open source.

Could you please clarify following queries ?

1)Is there any licensing cost involved if I use Derby as part of my application ?

That's right. There is no licensing cost.

2)If I face any issues in using this or any issues in Derby software will derby team support ? If so what is the turnaround time ?

Most questions sent to derby-user and derby-dev are answered promptly. However, there is no service level agreement and no iron-clad guarantee that the community can solve your problem. Two big companies (Oracle and IBM) have committed resources to Derby. I don't know whether IBM offers service options for Derby. Oracle offers the following:

o Support during development if you buy a Java SE Support contract.

o Production support if you buy a Java Embedded Suite license.

For details on service level agreements, you would need to talk to an Oracle sales rep.

Hope this helps,
-Rick

Thanks & Regards,

Ravi
