Java Database Connectivity, or JDBC™ is technology in an application program interface facility from Sun Microsystems that supports access from the Java language to any tabular data source. JDBC provides connectivity to a wide range of SQL databases.

Process Commander uses JDBC to access its own PegaRULES database and can use JDBC to access external databases. You can define JDBC connections in the prconfig.xml file or through a Database data instance.

For links to Oracle and IBM tools for JDBC debugging, see Pega Developer Network article PRKB-21078 Troubleshooting JDBC problems with tools from Pegasystems and others.
