Fast, reliable data access for ODBC, JDBC, ADO.NET and XML

JDBC™ is an application programming interface for accessing databases with SQL. JDO is an API for providing ODBMS and object/relational mappings for Java. SQLJ is embedded SQL for Java. A Java-enabled database embeds Java classes to add types and behaviors. This technology is often called "Java in the database".
