Thanks for the article. Is it possible to use the
JPA “entity” concept with HSQLDB? If yes, how can it be done?

I’ll go with H2 (http://www.h2database.com/html/main.html). It is much faster than HSQLDB. Look at http://www.h2database.com/html/performance.html

Thanks for the tip – but you can still do the same with SQLite. I have developed a few standalone apps for clients, and they all used SQLite Database. It is small fast and efficient.

Thanks anyway, I will link to your post.
