Database for storing small amounts of data used in a java application

Iam developing a client/server app in java.
I need to store ids , passwords etc of all the users for login,document sharing and chat purposes.
I dont want to install any DBMS because i need only 1 or 2 tables with around a thousand entries.
Is there any way to do this??

Check out HSQLDB or H2 database. Both will fit your needs

Both have a rich set of SQL features, can run embedded or standalone and have a small memory footprint. Personally I prefer HSQLDB over H2 but not for a specific reason.

You can write the data to a local file on the server, and read it from there, but its hardly efficient.

Why not use the JavaDb which comes with the JDK as standard ? You can run it in-JVM and persist to the file-system. It's a SQL database so if you're familiar witha RDBMS it should be straightforward to integrate.
