Yes, I agree with you about relational data, BarleyDB holds the relational data in memory and then provides Pojo proxies to it. Combining an active record approach with a domain model Pojo approach if you like. This is why it is fully possible to use BarleyDB without compiling any classes, you can just use the in memory model instead.
