Overview of JDBC: Java Database Connectivity

JDBC provides a set of classes for Java with a standard SQL database access interface. Goal is uniform access to a wide range of relational databases Resource: http://www.javasoft.com/products/jdbc

Provides an API for database "drivers" to make actual connections and transactions to database products. includes JDBC-ODBC bridge to standard ODBC drivers, a common interface for relational databases from C

JDBC is "low-level" interface, calling SQL commands directly but is meant to be a base for higher-level interfaces.

This talk has three sections: Using JDBC in Java, with a 2 tier example JDBC drivers 3 tier examples
