WebLogic's Support for JDBC

WebLogic has built-in drivers to access any kind of database. These drivers include WebLogic's native JDBC drivers.

WebLogic Server 7.0 supports JDBC drivers compatible with the JDBC 2.0 API. From Figure 7.6 you can see that the JDBC driver is a set of adapters that WebLogic Server supports to connect to databases.
