This hands-on guide shows Java developers how to access data with the new 3.0 Java Database Connectivity (JDBC) API, use LDAP-enabled directory services with Java Network Directory Services (JNDI), and manipulate XML data using Java APIs for XML processing (JAXP).
Readers will acquire the skills needed to effectively create Java applications that can access a variety of data sources. Readers will also learn the basics of JDBC 3.0 and how it relates to the Java programming language as a whole.
The book covers connection pooling, JSP implementations, Enterprise JavaBeans, object oriented design patterns for implementing JDBC solutions, and how to use, store and retrieve data using LDAP.
