+hamsterdb is a lightweight embedded database engine. It is
+in development for more than three years and concentrates
+on ease of use, high performance, stability and portability.
+
+The hamsterdb API is simple and self-documenting.The interface
+is similar to other widely-used database engines.Fast algorithms
+and data structures guarantee high performance for all scenarios.
+Hamsterdb has hundreds of unittests with a test coverage of over
+90%. Each release is tested with thousands of acceptance tests in
+many different configurations, tested on up to six different
+hardware architectures and operating systems.Written in plain
+ANSI-C, hamsterdb runs on many architectures: Intel-compatible
+(x86, x64), PowerPC, SPARC, ARM, RISC and others. Tested operating
+systems include Microsoft Windows, Microsoft Windows CE, Linux,
+SunOS and other Unices.
