    Introduction to JDBC

    • JDBC is an API that helps a programmer to write java programs


    to connect to any database, retrieve the data from the database

    • java.sql packagecontains a set of interfaces that


    specify the JDBC API

    Introduction to JDBC
    • Using JDBC, you can write code that:

    Connects to one or more data servers

    Executes any SQL statement

    Obtains a result set so that you can


    navigate through query results

    Obtains metadata from the data server

    Architecture and Querying with JDBC
    • The JDBC API consists of two major sets of interfaces:
    • The first is the JDBC API for applications writers, and
    • The second is the lower-level JDBC driver API for driver
    writers
    • As seen from the previous diagram, the DriverManager class is
    the traditional management layer of JDBC, working between
    the user and the drivers
    • It keeps track of the drivers that are available and handles
    establishing a connection between a database and the
    appropriate driver.
    • In addition, the DriverManager class attends to things like
    driver login time limits and the printing of log and tracing
    messages

    Stage 1: Connect

    Connect Register the driver

    Query Connect to the database

    The first thing you need to do is establish a


    Process
    connection with the DBMS (Database
    results
    Management System) you want to use.
    This involves two steps:
    (1)loading the driver and
    (2)making the connection.

    Connect: A JDBC Driver
    Is a set of classes and interfaces, written according to JDBC API
    to communicate with a database.

    A JDBC Driver

    • The JDBC API defines a set of interfaces that encapsulate


    major database functionality like
    • running queries
    • processing results
    • determining configuration information
    • A database vendor or third-party developer writes a JDBC
    driver, which is a set of classes that implements these
    interfaces for a particular database system
    • An application can use a number of drivers
    interchangeably
    • JDBC drivers are available for most database platforms,
    from a
    number of vendors and in a number of different flavors

    Types of JDBC Drivers

    • Sun Microsystems has identified 4 types of drivers. Each of


    these types meets a different application need and also differs
    in its performance
    • Type 1 driver – JDBC-ODBC bridge.
    • Type 2 driver – Native-API driver.
    • Type 3 driver – Network-Protocol driver (middleware driver)
    • Type 4 driver – Database-Protocol driver (Pure Java driver)

    • Type 4 driver is widely used by most vendors nowadays as it


    provides better performance and direct access to DBMS
    features
