Abstract
In this paper we describe the architecture and implementation of an embedded database system for Digital Rights Management (DRM), TDB. We concentrate on the aspects of TDB’s design, which were affected by the requirements of DRM applications. We show that, although it provides additional functionality for DRM applications, TDB performs better then Berkeley DB and has a code footprint comparable to other embedded database systems.
