How does JDBC differ from ODBC?

Answer Posted / imtiyaz

ODBC is a layer which is designed to communicate with
different databases. when we give a command to odbc it
talks with the specific database in its language we need
not to worry about the database what we are communicating
Thats why it is called Opend Data Base Connectivity

JDBC is layer and it is having its own API which is having
the commands to communicate with database.

when we JDBCODBC Driver, this will take care of sending the
java commands which can understand by ODBC.
