This valuable guide provides both the academic side--designing databases--and the practical side--coding interfaces--of enterprise applications involving JDBC. Van Haecke goes into much detail on designing database applications, a process he calls identifying the "business logic" of a program. He talks a little bit about three-tier database design (though dbAnywhere and similar programs get glossed over) and discusses CORBA from a conceptual point of view. Van Haecke also covers Remote Method Invocation (RMI) and security in more depth than most books offer; the automotive-flavored sample application included for RMI is hardly typical of the usual dry fare employed to explain the subject. Van Haecke, a Sun Microsystems consultant, shines when he explains complicated database topics. This book includes a great discussion of serving multimedia from a database, including a complete sample application for that purpose. All the source code appears on the companion CD-ROM along with Bongo 1.0, JDK 1.1.1, and some other tools. If you already have a decent grasp of JDBC and want guidance through the hairier aspects of Java database work, this is the book for you.

Book Description
In a world of acronyms and abbreviations, JDBC is one worth knowing. It's the application programming interface that bridges the gap between sophisticated relational database management systems and Java, a programming language uniquely suited to today's intranet and Internet networking environments.

Synopsis
This book helps Java developers optimize their efforts by offering an integrated approach to Java database access. It offers a complete "best practices" approach. The CD contains all the exercises in the book and JDBC (Java 1.1 SDK). Illus Pub: 8/97.
