JDBC
Abbreviation · Development
Definitions
Java Database Connectivity — a standard Java API for connecting to and executing queries against relational databases. Provides a uniform interface regardless of the underlying database vendor, with vendor-specific drivers handling the translation.
In plain English: Java's built-in way to talk to databases — write your database code once and it works with any database that has a JDBC driver.
Example: "JDBC abstracts away whether you're talking to Postgres, MySQL, or Oracle — the code stays the same, only the connection string changes."
