Understanding Java Database Connectivity

Java Database Connectivity (JDBC) is an API that allows Java applications to interact with relational databases by executing SQL queries and managing data. It provides platform independence and supports multiple databases such as MySQL and Oracle. The architecture includes components like DriverManager, Connection, and various types of JDBC drivers to facilitate communication with databases.

Introduction to Java
Database Connectivity
(JDBC)
•JDBC (Java Database Connectivity) is an API that enables Java
applications to interact with relational databases.

•It allows Java programs to execute SQL queries, retrieve


results, and perform database operations efficiently.

•JDBC provides a standardized way to connect to different


databases like MySQL, PostgreSQL, Oracle, and more.
