I'm using Berkeley DB JE for one of my apps; it's a pure-Java
reimplementation of the old classic Berkeley DB non-relational database.
It's got some really nice Java reflection glue that combines well with
GWT's RPC glue. I can pull an object out of the database on the server
and pass it directly to the client in about three lines of code, and GWT
and Berkeley DB take care of all the plumbing. And because it's pure
Java, there's no extra dependencies on the server --- you just drop the
jarfile in WEB-INF/lib and it Just Works(tm).
A server-side RPC implementation can be as literally trivial as this:
DataObject getFromDB(int key)
{
try
{
return _index.get(key);
}
catch (DatabaseException e)
{
return null;
}
}
