Hello,

In very easy language, we can say that JNDI is used in weblogic to call objects like JMS, JDBC, destinations, etc.
Each and every object has JNDI name which is used internally while calling some objects.

Each and every object should have unique JNDI name.

JNDI names are stored in tree like structure called JNDI tree.

Answer / enigma

As per my views,

With all due respect to interviewer, the question is not
framed properly. It could have been "What is JNDI ?"

JNDI is a generalised concept. It is not specific to
weblogic. JNDI is same in websphere, weblogic,Tomcat,LDAPS.
JNDI is the most convinient data structure which can be
used for implemtation of any application server, webserver
or any complex JVM based system. We can implemet JNDI for
all the folders and files store on the PC. JNDI is nothing
but the basic data structure which known as Trees.

As per my views,

JNDI is an context lookup for information retrived from
application.
and also we can say, JNDI is a line to reach/trace our DB
data.
and also we can say, JNDI is like a folder which contains
information sent/recevied to/from database.
