DeveelDB is a complete SQL database system, primarly developed for .NET/Mono frameworks
DeveelDB is a complete embeddable SQL-99 RDBMS for .NET/Mono frameworks. The system is designed around the standards ISO/ANSI
Although the core project is thought to be embedded in applications, the modular architecture allows extensions to other uses, such as providing databases through networks: an application is already included in the solution.
DeveelDB is released under the Apache 2.0 license. This is a very permissive licensing, that allows anyone to use the core library into commercial and non-commercial project. Other libraries (such as he GIS extension) are released under different licensing, due to commercial reasons or to dependencies from external tools.
You can verify the current status of the application code by checking the project at AppVeyor Continuous Integration (access as "guest" user: you will find the direct link below the login form).

The project was started as a proof of concept long time ago (in 2003!), to implement the first SQL engine for .NET: for all this time the project has been developed and managed almost like an hobby by me (Antonello Provenzano), going in parallel with my regular jobs and studies, never gained much attention by the industry, but also not very well managed.
The new version of the project aims to restart everything from scratch, making it right (code coverage, regressions, management, etc.), with the goal to finally deliver something great to .NET developers. Unfortunately, as you can also see exploring the source code, the amount of work is quite important, and not always I can manage alone to make everything (architectural design, implementation, testing, commenting, etc.): I feel a bit lonely.
The following kind of help is very welcome:
