Today Ingres announced its Ingres 2006 , Can some one do a fast or in depth comparison between this two product? Fast comparision: Derby is Java Derby may be embedded That's not a comparison. Ingres to Derby is an apples to oranges comparison. Two totally different beasts. Note that this includes licensing agreements. Derby is released under Apache. Meaning you can do pretty much what you want to do with it, just include some legalease embedded in your shrink wrap. I asked mostly about their features , things like scalability , availability , performance under high load , performance on very large tables with 10s of  millions of records . sql richness , ... Not so fast comparision: An in depth comparision requires a lot of work. You are welcome to contribute. A nice starting point: http://wiki.apache.org/db-derby/SQLvsDerbyFeatures. Then try to get somtehing similar for Ingres 2006 and the SQL-part should be covered. Then there's the rest.
