What about it? In that article, the author creates a custom Java application
that uses JDBC, then uses XMLSocket in Flash to talk to it. Flash is not
connecting to a database directly.

It's actually possible for Flash to connect directly to a MS SQL Server 2000
database, because you can set up an IIS component (provided by Microsoft)
that exposes your database to XML dataset requests.

Both of these are horrendously bad ideas, from security and maintenance
perspectives.
