1. You should import org.apache.derby.jdbc
2. There is -no- reason for you to hide your reference to derby if you
   hard code the name. Just do new org.apache.derby.jdbc.EmbeddedDriver().
   No need to muck around with dynamic class loading unless you get
   the name of the driver from some configuration source.
3. Yes, I have successfully used derby.

Kind regards,
