If you are going to Use JDBC-ODBC bridge please be aware that it is not
multithreaded and also sun says that this driver should not be used to
commercial app's. Type # is a good choice if you are behind a fore wall and
if you have to use Socks or HTTP tunneling This is not possible via type 4
drivers. You mey get an native driver for a particular RDBMS but if you have
to use tunneling and socks you may have to got for Type 3. The only
disadvantage of type 3 is a seperate layer is there between the ODBC driver
and the application. Type 3 driver which we found good was JDataConnect from
NetDirect.

Hope this helps

Subject: which JDBC-driver I need ??


Hi all gurus
I've one general query on type of driver I should
go for , for my web-based project...
the application-architecture is like
we shall have databases at two
remote places and so we will be using two
web-servers for interacting with them...
..i'm slightly confused wherther we should
go for jdbc-odbc-bridge as a driver or
for type II OR III or IV....
Can  all of you please through some light
On this issue....when and for what extra things
We should go for type II OR IV (as they say are
the good ones)...
..does it depend on the complexity of the application...?

Please I need some suggestions from all of you..

 Thanx and regards,
Rajesh
