Daffodil Software launches free Java Database: One$DB

Daffodil Software today announced the launch of One$DB, a free version of its Java Database - Daffodil DB.

One$DB is exactly the same as Daffodil DB, barring a few features such as Full Text Search, Persistent Stored Modules and Row Sets. In spite of these features being excluded, One$DB still remains comparable to the best that the Java Database market has to offer.

Against convention, One$DB does not put any restriction with regards to number of connections, CPU usage and total data storage. Developers can now build, test and deploy new applications at zero license costs. Daffodil will also provide free support for the product through its community forum and will also offer affordable commercial support under its One$/day support program.

\" One$DB is a concept that is will prove to be hugely beneficial to SME\'s / small ISV\'s \", said Yogesh Agarwal, CEO (Daffodil Software). \" It offers one of the major benefits of Open Source software by being free and also provides the added advantage of world-class, company-provided support. We believe in being open and transparent to users; consequently, making an Open Source project around Daffodil DB could be our next step \", he added.

\" The availability of One$DB as a free version is very good news \", commented Dr. Jürgen Pitschke of Business Consulting Saxony. \" The European market will be reciprocative towards such a product. Especially small and medium sized software companies will value the fact that they can develop applications with the free version without additional startup costs. \"

[b]One$DB - Free Java Database[/b]

One$DB is a free version of Daffodil DB, our commercial Java RDBMS. It has been made available in both Embedded and Network Editions , both as part of the same (free) download .


An extremely feature-rich database, One$DB incorporates features such as:

Support for ‘Read only’ database
Comprehensive Triggers
ODBC support
Support for Unicode
Advanced Export / Import features
Support for Large Object Data types (BLOB and CLOB)
Stored procedures and many others

Note: One$DB does not support certain features such as Full-Text Search, PSM (Persistent Stored Module), Encryption Support, Backup & Restore, Row Sets & XA-Resources. These features have been made available in Daffodil DB.

By virtue of its small size and self-sufficiency, One$DB can be embedded within any application and delivers high performance with minimum system resource usage - thereby striking the right balance between size, features and performance. Unlike enterprise databases, One$DB is transparent to the end-user and does not require a DBA (Database Administrator).

One$DB is compatible with most of the leading brands of Application Servers, Web Servers, JDO and Object Mapping tools such as:

Websphere
Weblogic
Oracle 9ias
Sun One
JBoss
Tomcat
Apache
IIS (Internet Information System)
PWS (Personal Web Server)
Hibernate
Frontiersuite for J2EE
Kodo-JDO and many more

Notably, against convention, One$DB does not put any restriction with regards to number of connections, CPU usage and total data storage. Developers can now build, test and deploy new applications at zero license costs. One$DB can run on virtually any platform for which a Java Virtual Machine (JVM) is available, including Windows, Linux, Macintosh, Solaris and UNIX.

Daffodil Software also provides free support for One$DB through its Daffodil Developer [url=\"http://www.daffodildb.com:8080/jive3/index.jspa\"]forum[/url] and also offers affordable commercial support under its One$/day support program.
