Oh, I don't know. The link to Firebird was pretty interesting to me. 
(Thanks Paul!) And the subject line is complete enough that it would be 
easy enough to ignore.

As to doing the research, here's a link if anyone is still interested.

http://dmoz.org/Computers/Software/Databases/

Since most of write applications that hook up to databases, a Wiki page 
  on the open source DBMS options might be good to have.

http://nagoya.apache.org/wiki/apachewiki.cgi?StrutsProjectPages

Perhaps Vishal might start one as a summary of this thread. :)

Well. You're right if the focus is entirely Struts and
nothing else. The framework does this, the frame-
work does that, uh, Validator behaves strange and
the like. Strictly ControllerView-minded (as Actions
are not part of the Model). But then, most people
(like me) do Struts-based web applications, and
there's a lot more to that, as we all know. There
well may be a reason why virtually all the books
I've read about Struts don't stop at this point, but
go deeper down the rabbit hole and try to show
how to best implement an entire Struts-based
solution which, of course, finally ends up at
the resource tier. Or: you can't leave databases
out at this stage. Ok, this is [OT] when it comes
to Struts, but not too far off the spot in the
direction of Struts-based Java webapps. Otherwise,
all non-Struts taglib discussions would also be [OT]
here, at the least, including pager, display, layout,
menu and the like. Same would be true, of course, 
for OR mappers in general. Then, I owe this list
being made aware of iBATIS, something I've
more or less looked for for a rather long time.
Something our Oracle wizards marvel about
because thats the first time they can really
stretch out their capabilities without breaking
the OO layer contracts. Think I would miss it
now. Ah, the database. Well, it's the backbone
of all things, in the end. For me, it's easy to say:
use Oracle, it has the best Java support available,
and show me your RAC equivalent, if you can,
but it also has a definite price tag, and it may
be out of your options if you have a limited
budget. For me at least, it's always interesting
to hear about other databases, what people
recommend in this case and how well they
work with Java, ie. JDBC. So after all, I
wouldn't object to someone asking for a
good free database (there are several
good open-sourced ones around nowadays,
*not* including MySQL, that's a ledger, not a
database). Summing it all up in short,
I may find marking that question as [OT] to 
be fitting, but generally sufficient as well.

do a little homework, buddy. that's a bogus question
that is hardly excused by an [OT] prefix.
