Derby and Java MEPosted by mortazavi on November 30, 2007 at 09:40 AM | Permalink | Comments (0)John Embretsen of Sun's Java DB team has just posted a thorough wiki page on using Derby on Java ME platforms. He also shows how to test Derby with IBM's J9 and Sun's phoneME implementations. The tips and tricks section has some good pointers. Embretsen's wiki is a good place to start. Another good place is Mayuresh Nirhali's weblog on "JavaDB on JavaME." Where was I?Posted by mortazavi on November 30, 2007 at 01:31 AM | Permalink | Comments (0)While I was away for meetings at Sun Microsystems's India Engineering Center, Eileen Alan of SDN channel posted a recent conversation I had with Kuldip Oberoi about Java DB and Apache Derby. I think Kuldip and I touched on a number of important topics about the technology, the business and Sun's general strategy behind Sun's Java DB work, and it is certainly very exciting to see the uptake by the user and developer community. It would be even more exciting as we see Java DB used for more and more database courses. I know Sun's Java DB (Apache / Derby) engineers are coming up with some very cool features and applications, too ... For a glimpse of what might be coming up, take a look at Rick Hillegas' "Saucer Separation" presentation given at ApacheCon (Atlanta, Nov. 2007) ... You might also want to check out the upcoming JavaME conference (Santa Clara, Jan. 2008) and check out JavaPolis (Anwerp, Dec. 2007), where there may be up to 4 Java DB related talks, Francois Orsini tells me. So, stay tuned, and in the meantime, don't forget to check out Orsini's blog! Java Mobile and Java DBPosted by mortazavi on August 28, 2007 at 09:07 AM | Permalink | Comments (0)Do you need a database for your smart phone or CDC application? Listen to Rick Hillegas, Sun Senior Staff Engineer and Apache Derby developer, provide crisp and clear insights into uses of JavaDB. He also discusses release frequency, memory requirements, Java DB footprint and some very interesting Java DB survey results from JavaOne, including this one: Some 40% of users deploy Java DB in client-server mode. Some 60% in embedded mode. Also, check out Java Mobile and Embedded Community. FLOSS on PostgreSQLPosted by mortazavi on August 20, 2007 at 06:09 PM | Permalink | Comments (0)Randal Schwartz and Leo Laporte talk to Josh Berkus on FLOSS, about PostgreSQL, Perl, Python, PHP, Java, etc., and various PostgreSQL related projects. PostgreSQL and License FeesPosted by mortazavi on August 16, 2007 at 09:56 AM | Permalink | Comments (0)Check out this result to understand how you can save tons of money using PostgreSQL on Solaris on ULtraSparc T1 CoolThreads Server!
Very similar performance at a fraction of the cost! (Licensing fees ==> Oracle on HP: $80,000. PostgreSQL on SunFire: $0.) jMakiPosted by mortazavi on August 13, 2007 at 12:20 AM | Permalink | Comments (0)Project jMaki mixes and matches just about everything in Web 2.0 sight. My highlight of this year's O'Reilly's OSCon was when Arun Gupta (and here) gave me a 15 minute tutorial on jMaki at one of the Sun booths. It was great to have such a wonderful, succinct and intelligent tutorial from Arun, with whom I worked at Java Software many years ago. Thanks Arun (and keep running :-) ! To learn more, you can take this course or check out Greg Murray's blog. (I believe Greg invented jMaki to outdo the scratch and scrounge bubbling in the midst of Web 2.0, Ajax and Javascript libraries.)
