1.0 LDAP JDBC Driver

The LDAP JDBC Driver serves as an independent interface for extracting and reporting specified directory information for use in the Java applications that you use every day. It allows you to populate reports or import data into your custom programs.

The architecture behind the LDAP JDBC Driver consists of the Java application, the JVM, the LDAP JDBC Driver, the network, and the LDAP directory itself. The driver abstracts the directory tree into accessible relational database tables, which hides the complexity of the underlying directory syntax. Information is selected and ordered from the relational tables using standard SQL statements embedded into the application.
