RE: What are "embedded databases"
That's my understanding.. If you think of a linux server hosting Tomcat which in turn is hosting a complex Java application, which utilizes a big ass Oracle database hosted on a Solaris server in some other corner of the IT dept. Then the Oracle database is not embedded, and is accessed via JDBC. The funny thing is, Universe is only embedded for those good ol' fashioned green screen apps that we all know and love. In today's world, there is nothing to stop you from swapping out that 'big ass Oracle database' mentioned above with a Universe database... Then, it's no longer embedded Right??? -Original Message- From: Dave Taylor [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Monday, March 29, 2004 5:10 PM To: U2 Users Discussion List Subject: Re: What are "embedded databases" And, what if the database is not embedded?

Unclassified RE: What are "embedded databases"
Hmm ... I thought that what IBM mean by 'embedded database' is "the database you didn't even know you had". [8 words!] I.E., there's a database 'embedded' in the software package you bought / use, but you may have no idea that there is a database in there, and even if you do understand that fact, you've no idea which DBMS is actually 'under the hood'. ;-) Mike -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Tuesday, 30 March 2004 09:35 To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: RE: What are "embedded databases" Well, not sure about 10 words or less, but here's my effort: An embedded database is a technology that is deployed as the component responsible for data management within a business application.
