JDBC. its a software component(API) enabling java application to interact with database.

To connect with individual databases, JDBC (the Java Database Connectivity API) requires drivers for each database. The JDBC driver gives out the connection to the database and implements the protocol for transferring the query and result between client and database

 

it is a brige between your application and database.

java application can be connected to any of these database management system(services) with the help of JDBC Drivers. such as Oracle, Sybase, Ingress, Informix, Microsoft SQL Server, and Microsoft Access.

 

i hope this will help you in knowledge,

please inform me or need more clarification.

There are following JDBC drivers for some of the databases:

Postgresql-    org.postgresql.Driver

MySQL-           com.mysql.jdbc.Driver   or org.gjt.mm.mysql.Driver

Oracle10g-   oracle.jdbc.Oracle.Driver

MS Access-   sun.jdbc.odbc.JdbcOdbcdriver (if it doesnot work use oracle.jdbc.odbc.JdbcOdbcDriver)
