There are two major characteristics of Prevayler that make it useful in 
an Agile context.

One is speed. For running unit tests and quickly iterating, Prevayler is 
orders of magnitude faster than database-backed approaches. That makes 
testing much easier.

The other is simplicity. Databases, being large and opaque, are hard to 
reason about effectively. Prevayler's architectural limitations and 
performance characteristics are simple and clear.

There is no "best way". There are only conditions under which a tool is 
useful.
