I don't have a ton of experience outside of mySQL, however, the database specific drivers should have documentation explaining how you can take advantage of the specific database you are using. Check with the database vendor for driver information and then read all the driver doc's for more detail. Hope that helps, perhaps Oracle users can add some info???
