Introduction to JDBC
•JDBC stands for Java Database Connectivity.
•It is a standard Java API for connecting programs written in Java to
the data in relational databases.
•JDBC works with Java on a variety of platforms, such as Windows,
Mac OS, and the various versions of UNIX.
•Developed by Sun Microsystems.
•The JDBC library includes APIs for each of the tasks mentioned
below that are commonly associated with database usage.
–Making a connection to a database.
–Creating SQL or MySQL statements.
–Executing SQL or MySQL queries in the database.
–Viewing & Modifying the resulting records.
Connection con =
DriverManager.getConnection("jdbc:mysql://localhost:3306/studentdb","root","12345");
Statement st = con.createStatement();
Key Components of JDBC PROCESS
🔹 JDBC API
This includes interfaces and classes that facilitate database operations.
Component Description Example Code
Connection con =
Manages DB drivers and establishes
DriverManager DriverManager.getConnection(url, user,
connections.
pass);
Connection Represents a session with the database. con.createStatement();
stmt.executeQuery("SELECT * FROM
Statement Represents a session with the database.
users");
ps = con.prepareStatement("INSERT INTO
PreparedStatement Represents a session with the database.
emp VALUES(?, ?)");ps.setInt(1, 101);
Holds results from queries; allows row-by- while(rs.next()) {
ResultSet
row iteration. System.out.println(rs.getString(1)); }
Key Components of JDBC PROCESS
🌐 JDBC Drivers
These are specific implementations that enable JDBC to communicate with a particular database.
The Java application wants to use information
stored in a database
To do this, it first loads the JDBC driver, which is a
special software that lets Java applications talk to
databases.
Next, the application asks the JDBC driver to
establish a connection to the database.
Once connected, the Java application can send
commands and requests through the JDBC driver,
and the driver handles the communication with the
database to get or save the data.
JDBC Process Overview
Connection URL
Define the database
connection URL to
connect.
User Credentials
Specify username and
password for
authentication.
JDBC Process Overview
Security Measures
Implement security
protocols to protect
connections.
Creating a Statement
Establish a Statement
object for queries.
JDBC Process Overview
Executing the Statement
Execute SQL commands
and retrieve results.
Processing Results
Handle data output from
the executed query.
ADVANTAGES OF PROCESS
Error Handling Performance Security
Always manage exceptions to Optimize queries to enhance Implement layers of security for
prevent application crashes. database interaction speed. data protection.
Resource Management Connection Pooling Code Quality
Ensure resources are closed Reuse connections to improve Maintain high standards for
properly after use. performance and efficiency. readability and maintenance.
Conclusion
Mastering the Java JDBC process is
essential for professionals developing
database applications. Understanding
the workflow enhances your ability to
create efficient, robust connections
and manage data effectively. With the
right practices in place, including
efficient resource management and
error handling, you pave the way for
optimal performance and security in
your applications. Embrace these
concepts as you advance in your Java
programming journey.
