J

Java Database Connectivity (JDBC)

A set of database APIs used in the Java programming language. These APIs allow access to database management systems from Java applications using callable SQL, which does not require the use of an SQL preprocessor. The JDBC architecture lets users add modules, called JDBC database drivers, that link the Java application to their choice of database management systems at runtime. Applications do not need to be linked directly to the modules of all the supported database management systems.

JDBC driver

A program included with database management systems to support the JDBC standard access between databases and Java applications.

join

An SQL relational operation that retrieves data from two or more tables based on matching column values.
