Hi Holger, Since I don't need to keep anything stored through Jena, I obviously don't need Oracle. If i understood correctly, some physical (temp) storage is needed for the middleware API to work? Did you recommend TDB for best performance? Possibly also easiest to setup? Does the data accumulate so that I have to write code to periodically delete it (i.e. can it be configured as temp data)? Also, does TopBraid offer a service that can be used for development? Cost is the biggest factor for me. I'm also not a good sysadmin and right now I have to do everything myself. The context of my use case is described here http://groups.google.com/group/fluiddb-users/browse_thread/thread/5509f8ac029b9948 and I'm also curious what you think about it...
