Request for Question Clarification by kyrie26-ga on 08 Feb 2003 07:45 PST

Hi deepak2110-ga,

Can you give an example of a "Java Database"? To my understanding, the
two terms are mutually exclusive - for instance, you can run a Java
application that talks to a database. I don't suppose you are talking
about databases that were built using Java? Some examples would be
helpful. Thanks!

Hi kyrie26-ga,

Some examples of java databses are Cloudscape, Pointbase, JDataStore
etc. I AM talking about "java databases" in particular i.e. which have
been built using java which are also callled pure java databases.
Also, I'm not talking about those databases which have JDBC driver
available. JDBC driver is available for almost all databases such as
Oracle, SQL Server; but they are not java databases because they have
not been built using java.

Thanks!
