Sleepycat

Late last week I was asked to look at BerkleyDB for possible use within one of our servers (JBossCache also make used of BerkeyDB). Certain team members thought that BerkleyDB might be a better fit that using Oracle. I've never used Berkley DB, but having done a few google searchs , and reading this article, BerkeyDB could be an interesting replacement for Oracle in our servers that needs a high performance transactional storage engine.
