In the JDBC tutorial we will learn JDBC in detail with the help of example code.
Java Database Connectivity(JDBC) Tutorial
This tutorial on JDBC explains you the concept to Java Database Connectivity
with the help of articles, examples and code examples. After completing this
tutorial you will get the skills to use JDBC API effectively to develop database
driven applications in Java. You can use JDBC in your console, AWT, Swing and
Web applications. JDBC API provides the necessary interfaces for connecting to
the relational databases and executing the SQL statements. All the Java based
ORM technologies such as Hibernate, Toplink, iBatis etc. uses the JDBC API for
connecting to the database.
The JDBC API is very important API and if you are planning to develop
database driven application you will have to use it. So, for Java it is
necessary to learn the JDBC in detail.
This JDBC tutorial is supported by many examples and code snippets. You can
download these code and easily run on your machine as a part of learning
process. Small JDBC examples are very useful in learn the detailed concepts of
JDBC. We have provided the examples on almost all the concepts of JDBC.
Objective of the JDBC Tutorial
The Objective of this JDBC tutorial is to provide complete and concise
tutorial on JDBC. This tutorial is also backed with and example of simple web
application in JDBC.
Brief Introduction to JDBC
connectivity or JDBC is an interface (API) used to connect to relational
databases from the Java program. Java developers uses the JDBC API to make JDBC
connect to the relational databases. With the help of JDBC api developers can
query database, add data, update data and even delete the data from database
JDBC different versions
1). The JDBC 1.0 API.
2). The JDBC 1.2 API.
3). The JDBC 2.0 Optional Package API.
4). The JDBC 2.1 core API.
5) The JDBC 3.0 API.
6) The JDBC 4.0 API.
Let's get started with the JDBC tutorials.

Getting Stated with JDBC
This is the Getting Stated tutorial on JDBC.
JDBC Examples, JDBC Example code
In this section we are providing many JDBC examples. Learn JDBC with the help of running example code.
Using JDBC API ,frontend java applications can execute query and fetch data from connected database.
JDBC programming interface is found in "java.sql" and "javax.sql" packages.
Types of JDBC drivers
In this example the types of jdbc drivers are given and its types.
Connection using Jdbc-odbc bridge Driver
Jdbc-Odbc bridge driver create connection between java application and 'MS Access database'.
Creation and insertion in table
In this program we create table in MYSQL using "create" statement and insert data using "insert " statement query in the created database.
column count using metadata
In this program ,using ResultSetMetaData we will count column of a table.
Get rows count and get columns names
In this program , we will count the number of data rows stored in a table & also get column names.
Deleting row and column from a table
In this program ,we delete row and column of a table.
batch in jdbc
In Batch processing, many queries work together as batch,run query in batch in java jdbc.
Inserting Image into table
For inserting image, table's field (in which image will be stored) must be define as "blob".
Natural Join / joining two tables
A join provide the facility to merge two tables according to common field and Create a new virtual field. We will use the following query-
Joining two table using Natural Left join
In Natural Left join, both table are merge to each other according to common field, but the priority is given to the first table's field values
Joining two tables using Natural right join
In Natural Right join, both table are merge to each other according to common field, but the priority is given to the Second table's field values.
Get date data type from table
In this example , we will get "Date" data type from a table of "Mysql" database
Inserting a row using PreparedStatement
In this section ,we will insert data in table of database using "PreparedStatement".
Insert into table using Java Swing
In this section, We will insert rows into "Mysql" database using "Swing".
Get "Schema" of a table using "ResultSetMetaData"
In this section, schema of a table will be fetched by using 'Resultset' object and 'ResultSetMetaData' object .
Inserting Mysql CLOB data using Servlet
In this Section, we will insert "clob" data using "servlet".
Displaying Mysql clob data using Servlet
In this Section, we will display a clob data from a table of database using servlet
Deleting Mysql Clob data using servlet
In this Section, we will discuss about how to delete a Clob data from a database table using servlet.
Insert Mysql Blob data
In this section, we will discuss about how to insert a blob data into a database table.
Display Mysql "Blob" data using servlet
In this section, we will discuss about how to display a blob data stored in database table.
Deleting Blob Data from Database table using servlet
In this section, we will discuss about how to insert a blob data into a database table
