It is JDBC API connects to the database using JDBC drivers that are classified into four types: JDBC-ODBC bridge driver, native driver, network protocol driver, and thin driver. A Connection is a session that exists between a Java program and a database. The connection interface is a factory for statement, PreparedStatement, and DatabaseMetaData, which means that the connection object may be used to get the Statement and DatabaseMetaData objects.
