Sleepycat Software launched a new version of Berkeley DB Java Edition and is offering the catnip of performance and usability improvements with this release.
The release comes ahead of the JavaOne conference slated to kick off next week.
The new 2.0 version of Berkeley DB Java Edition boasts support for a
number of J2EE standards, including J2EE Connector Architecture (JCA), Java
Transaction API (JTA) and Java Management Extensions (JMX).

As well, "Sequences" are now supported in the Java Edition in an
identical manner as they are in the Berkeley DB C Edition. Sleepycat also
claims that its new version has improved memory management as well as
overall improved scalability and performance.
"For out-of-cache applications, storage efficiency has been greatly
improved, minimizing the amount of redundant data in the log," Sleepycat said. "As a
result, applications running out of cache will see a 30-70 percent
improvement in data throughput."
Berkeley DB Java Edition is now also officially certified on Solaris 10
for x64. As is the case with all Berkeley DB versions, 2.0 is dual licensed
under both open source and commercial license use. Sleepycat released its first pure
Java version of its open source Berkeley DB last year.
A study from Evans Data put Berkeley DB in a distant fourth place among open source databases at
only 4.1 percent of developers. MySQL(52.9 percent), Firebird (51.6 percent)
and PostgreSQL(14.8 percent) held the top three spots.
