PostgreSQL wire protocol. The JDBC PostgreSQL driver uses the same wire
protocol, but exposes the JDBC client API instead.
+ ADBC drivers can be implemented as libraries in different languages
+ including C++, C#, Go, and Rust. A driver can be imported directly into an
+ application that's implemented in the same language, or it can be compiled
+ into a shared library (a ``.so`` file for Linux, a ``.dylib`` file for
+ macOS, or a ``.dll`` file for Windows) and dynamically loaded into an
+ application in any supported language using a :term:`driver manager`.

driver manager
- A library that helps manage multiple drivers for a given client API.
- For example, the JDBC driver manager can find a appropriate driver
- implementation for a database URI.
+ A library for loading and using :term:`drivers <driver>`. A driver manager
+ implements the ADBC API and delegates to dynamically-loaded drivers. It
+ simplifies using multiple drivers in a single application and makes it
+ possible to use drivers written in any language, regardless of the
language
+ the application is written in.
+
+ The in each language is similar. In C/C++, it can dynamically load
drivers
