| <h2>Summary</h2> |
| |
| <p> |
| Apache Derby is a standards-based, pure-Java relational database engine. |
| Its easy-to-use data manager requires no administration by end users. |
| Derby runs on any JVM at Java version 9 or higher and Derby supports JDBC |
| version 4.3. |
| Derby's platform-independent database format may be copied to |
| any file system. |
