Derby

Derby, formerly known as Cloudscape is a Java based database engine used by the EACTS Database Software. Cloudscape was initially developed by IBM. Eventually, IBM opened the source of Cloudscape, which allowed us to use it in our project.

IBM writes:

IBM Cloudscape™ V10.0 is a pure, open source-based Java relational database management system that can be embedded in Java programs and used for online transaction processing (OLTP). A platform-independent, small-footprint (2MB) database, Cloudscape V10.0 integrates tightly with any Java-based solution.
