Hello,

The Getting Started Guide explains how to embed Derby in a desktop 
application: http://db.apache.org/derby/docs/10.5/getstart/

Oracle and other databases (including Derby server mode) - the DB runs
as a separate process and the application talks to it over a network
connection. Embedded databases such as Derby the database runs inside
your application, the database is on a local disk and the application
objects talk directly to the DBMS objects via method calls.

Actually doing the embedding basically requires two things:

1. including derby.jar in your classpath

2. connecting to the database using a URL that specifies a local file

Otherwise - what Rick said - the Derby documentation is pretty
straightforward and useful.
