I don't work for Sybase, but I will make a recommendation....
Sybase is offering the Linux version of their full-featured SQL database
engine for free at:
http://linux.sybase.com
Version 11.0.3.3 is free for development and deployment.
The JDBC driver for the engine is also free and it is available at:
http://www.sybase.com/products/internet/jconnect/jdbcreg41_50.html
The Sybase ASE engine is very compatible with MS SQL Server. Microsoft used
to reship the Sybase engine before buying source code rights from Sybase.
The current MS SQL Server is derived from the Sybase source code. Since
JDBC hides most of the differences between SQL servers, it is possible to
simply replace most existing MS SQL servers with the free Sybase one. You
can even use the MS SQL Server ODBC driver to talk to the Sybase engine on
Linux.
