Apache Derby Project Charter

+ + + + +

Derby Project Charter

+
+

+The Derby project develops open source database technology that is: +

+
    + +
  • Pure Java
  • + +
  • Easy to use
  • + +
  • Small footprint
  • + +
  • Standards based
  • + +
  • Secure
  • + +
+ +

Database Technology

+

+ Database technology is defined as software that processes data related + requests from applications. + Data requests include data definition, data modification and data retrieval. + Database GUI tooling and IDEs are not developed by the Derby project. +

+ +

Pure Java

+

+ Derby technology is written in Java to take advantage of Java’s write + once, run anywhere promise. + Java platforms such as OSGi, J2ME, J2SE and J2EE are supported as appropriate. +

+ +

Easy to Use

+

+ Derby technology aims to be easy to use for software developers and zero administration for end users. +

+ +

Small Footprint

+

+ Derby technologies are designed to provide significant useful + functionality in a small code size footprint with efficient runtime + resource usage. +

+ +

Standards based

+

+ Derby technology adheres to database standards such as JDBC + and ANSI SQL standards. + This means Derby provides the functionality expected of a modern relational + database, + including SQL syntax, transaction management, concurrency, triggers, + and online backups. + And it also means developers can later migrate to other databases if they + so choose. +

+ +

Secure

+

+ Derby technology provides secure data management appropriate to environment + the engine is executing in. Traditional enterprise database systems rely on + the machine being physically protected (locked machine room) for security, + Derby databases are often in unprotected environments, such as laptops and + unattended hardware. +

+
+ + + +

Derby Technologies

+
+ +

Derby embedded database engine

+

+ The core of the technology, Derby’s database engine is a full + functioned relational embedded database engine. JDBC and SQL are the + programming APIs. +

+ +

Derby network server

+

+ The Derby network server increases the reach of the Derby database + engine by providing traditional client server functionality. + The network server allows clients to connect over TCP/IP using the standard + DRDA protocol. + The network server allows the Derby engine to support networked JDBC, + ODBC/CLI, Perl and PHP. +

+ +

Database Utilities

+
    + +
  • +ij -- a tool that allows SQL scripts to be executed + against any JDBC database. +
  • + +
  • +dblook -- Schema extraction tool for a Derby database. +
  • + +
  • +sysinfo -- Utility to display version numbers and + class path. +
  • + +
+
+ + + +

Derby History

+
+

+Cloudscape Inc, an Oakland, California start-up, was founded in 1996 to +develop Java database technology. The first release of the database engine, +then called JBMS, was in 1997. +Subsequently the product was renamed Cloudscape and releases were made about +every six months. +In 1999 Informix Software, Inc., acquired Cloudscape, Inc. +In 2001 IBM acquired the database assets of Informix Software, +including Cloudscape. +The database engine was re-branded to IBM Cloudscape and releases continued, +mainly focussing on embedded use with IBM's Java products and middleware. +In August 2004 IBM contributed the code to the Apache Software Foundation +as Derby, an Incubator project sponsored by the Apache DB project +(see the Incubator proposal). +In July 2005 Derby graduated from the Incubator into the Apache DB project. +
