Desktop applications can be easily developed using Java. We use APIs like AWT, Swing, JavaFX to build these applications. AWT (Abstract Windowing Toolkit) is an interface used to develop window-based applications in Java.

If you're looking for an embeddable database, my recommendation would be H2 (stands for Hypersonic 2, (re)written by the author of HSQLDB). See the detailed comparison of features and of performances.

Using a 100% Java database would allow to run it in the same process and make things a lot easier IMO.
