RSSOwl

Developers in the RSSOwl team were
feeling pressure from the competition. Other RSS readers were moving
ahead in terms of features and extensibility. And as loyal as they
might have been, hundreds of thousands of RSSOwl 1.x users made it
clear they wanted more, and might start migrating to other rea-ders
if the team didn‘t get to work. Facing a total rewrite of their
RSS/RDF/Atom news reader, the team imple-mented db4o, the object
database and persistence engine from Versant. By embedding db4o, the
team was able to come to market more quickly than with a relational
database, and with an application that contained no SQL, required
less maintenance and used fewer memory resources.
