ODBC group create a set of functions called as ODBC API and
the database vendors accepted ODBC API because the
implementation of odbc requires c language with pointer
coding.It means ODBC API was success.if a front end
application uses ODBC then it can connect with any database.
java has no pointers but ODBC using pointers.so non pointer
to pointer conversion is required.it become slow
connectivity from java to database.java is platform
independent but odbc is platform dependent .if java uses
ODBC then java also platform dependent.this is against java
principle.in order to overcome the above problems,sun micro
system introduced its own technology as JDBC.
