Answer / mallesh

With the help JNDI we can bind any objects. That means
(java, dotnet..). By using RMI registry we can bind only
java objects. JNDI is a platform indepent so we can
intaract with any servers.

What is the purpose of JNDI?..

Answer / rajkumar siripuram

JNDI is the Java Naming and Directory Interface. It's used
to separate the concerns of the application developer and
the application deployer. When you're writing an application
which relies on a database, you shouldn't need to worry
about the user name or password for connecting to that
database. JNDI allows the developer to give a name to a
database, and rely on the deployer to map that name to an
actual instance of the database.

For example, if you're writing code that runs in a Java EE
container, you can write this to get hold of the data source
with JNDI name "Database":

DataSource dataSource = null;
try
{
Context context = new InitialContext();
dataSource = context.lookup("Database");
}
catch (NamingException e)
{
// Couldn't find the data source: give up
}

Note there's nothing here about the database driver, or the
user name, or the password. That is configured inside the
container.

JNDI is not restricted to databases (JDBC); all sorts of
services can be given names. For more details, you should
check out the Sun tutorial on the subject.

Answer / makthar basha

JNDI is Java Naming and Derectory Interface,JNDI can be used
as a general purpose service for accessing and retrieving a
mixed set of data. Using LDAP as a backend, JNDI allows us
to store Java Objects directly into the directory and
provides the user with APIs to make modifications to the
tree. The power comes in storing objects inside the tree itself.
