Why JDBC has introduced

Answer Posted / subbu

Microsoft has introduced odbc. Java and odbc combination
causes two drawbacks.
1. java is platform independent and odbc is platform
dependent(odbc works on windows). If java uses odbc it will
become platform dependent.

2. java is non-pointer programming.Odbc is implemented in
pointers. So, the conversion from non-pointer to pointer
coding and pointer to non-pointer coding is required.This
conversion makes database communication very slow.

so, SUN Microsystems has introduced JDBC technology.
