Java JDBC Tutorial

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

• Java JDBC is a java API(Application programming interface) to connect and execute query with the database. JDBC API uses jdbc drivers to connect with the database.
• Before JDBC, ODBC API was the database API to connect and execute query with the database. 
• But, ODBC API uses ODBC driver which is written in C language (i.e. platform dependent and unsecured). 
• That is why Java has defined its own API (JDBC API) that uses JDBC drivers (written in Java language).
