The JDBC (Java Database Connectivity) Connector is a program that enables various databases to be accessed by Java application servers that are run on the Java 2 Platform, Enterprise Edition (J2EE) from Sun Microsystems. The JDBC Connector connects an application server with a JDBC driver. The Connector allows driver vendors to package drivers so that they will be plug-and-play with J2EE applications and enables application server vendors to allow third-party JDBC drivers to be used with their products.
