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
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
  • JDBC drivers, including how to use examples at NPAC
  • MicroSoft Access and its JDBC interface
