Description: Relational database implemented entirely in Java
Long Description: Apache Derby, an Apache DB subproject, is an open source relational database implemented entirely in Java and available under the Apache License, Version 2.0. Some key advantages include: 1) Derby has a small footprint -- about 2 megabytes for the base engine and embedded JDBC driver. 2) Derby is based on the Java, JDBC, and SQL standards. 3) Derby provides an embedded JDBC driver that lets you embed Derby in any Java-based solution. 4) Derby also supports the more familiar client/server mode with the Derby Network Client JDBC driver and Derby Network Server. 5) Derby is easy to install, deploy, and use.

If you haven't already installed Darwin Ports, you can find easy instructions for doing so at the main Darwin Ports page.
Once Darwin Ports has been installed, in a terminal window and while online, type the following and hit return:

%  cd /opt/local/bin/portslocation/dports/derby
%  sudo port install derby  
Password: 

You will then be prompted for your root password, which you should enter. You may have to wait for a few minutes while the software is retrieved from the network and installed for you. Y ou should see something that looks similar to:

--->  Fetching derby
--->  Verifying checksum for derby
--->  Extracting derby
--->  Configuring derby
--->  Building derby with target all

--->  Staging derby into destroot

--->  Installing derby

- Make sure that you do not close the terminal window while Darwin Ports is working. Once the software has been installed, you can find further information about using derby with these commands:

%  man derby
%  apropos derby
%  which derby
%  locate derby
