This new feature of EAServer is compiled using JDK 1.4, which includes the JDBC 3.0 standards and all associated interfaces. With jConnect 6.0, you can use Kerberos to authenticate Java applications without sending user names and passwords over a network.
jConnect 6.0 for JDBC provides:
Interoperability with other JDBC drivers
High-performance direct database access
Zero-client installation
Diverse and legacy database support
Portability across any Web server and Java-enabled client
Scalability for business-critical applications
Security and reliability
For information about JDBC connection URLs, see “Configuring connection caches” in Chapter 4, “Database Access,” in the EAServer System Administration Guide.
