I’ve been on a quest for a while to find a nice opensource lightweight java database that will work with myEclipse Database Explorer and Hibernate. I’ve been messing around with Derby and HSQLDB for some time.

I ran across a project yesterday called H2 which looks very interesting. I was able to implement it easily into MyEclilpse’ Database Explorer, and it will even work with the Edit Data functions. The project is still in alpha, but looks very promising especially from a performance perspective.

It looks like a good solution for working on tuturials and modeling an application.

My ultimate solution will have a plugin that will allow me to add a database nature (like Derby) to my project, and then allow me to quickly and easily design database tables graphically (Please hurry ME), and enter test data using the edit tools.

I think we will get there eventually.

Hope someone else finds this useful.
