Hi, i have to choice a database to use in server-mode for a java desktop application.

I think both are great java database.

In my opinion (im NOT well-informed):

H2 PRO

  • Is java based
  • Develeopment say it is very very fast
  • Easy to install, configure and use with java application

H2 CONS

  • Is a young project
  • Reliability doubt for commercial porpouse

FireBird PRO

  • Rock solid project
  • Well documented
  • Should be fast and well optimized for large data
  • Has a java driver...

FireBird CONS

  • It is not java based
  • ... ?

So, i can't choice between this great db, can i have a suggestion?

Thank.
