Foil 23 Driver Classification - II

From Overview of JDBC and its use with Microsoft Access UC Web Applications Certificate -- June 26 97. by Nancy McCracken(Sangetta Aggarwal, Udayan Parvate, Tom Pulikal)
1 A net-protocol all-Java driver translates JDBC calls into a DBMS-independent net protocol which is then translated to a DBMS protocol by a server. This net server middleware is able to connect its all Java clients to many different databases. The specific protocol used depends on the vendor.
2 Native-protocol all-Java driver converts JDBC calls into the network protcol used by DBMSs directly. This allows a direct call from the client machine to the DBMS server and is a practical solution for Intranet access. Since many of these protocols are proprietary the database vendors themselves will be the primary source for this style of driver.
