Developing
on Open Standards/Open Source Database Systems
LOCATION: Zürich
SPEAKER: Akmal B. Chaudhri COMPANY: IBM Developer Skills Program
This presentation will show how to develop and deploy database applications using Cloudscape/Apache Derby. IBM donated Cloudscape to the open source community in 2004, and more than 80 IBM products use Cloudscape for its portability, ease of deployment, open standards-based Java engine, small footprint, and more. After an overview of Cloudscape/Derby, you will learn how to use it from the command line, as an embedded system and as a network server. The database system can also be used from within Eclipse through plugins, which will also be demonstrated.
