Oracle, of course, tries to makes sure that their common features are as identical or compatible as possible but whenever you have multiple 'anything' their is always a chance something doesn't work the same way in each driver.
#Oracle jdbc jar 7 drivers
use of only one driver minimizes the chance of a bug in one of the drivers causing a problem. Easier on the developers to keep things straight.Ģ. Only one common connection string type to use for all software. use of only one driver is a better standard unless you actually validate a need for a 2nd driver. So my final recommendation is to use the standard (client-side) thin driver in all cases:ġ. This chapter contains the following sections: It also describes the OCI Instant Client. This chapter introduces the features specific to the Java Database Connectivity (JDBC) Oracle Call Interface (OCI) driver. Only driver exception would be if you need any OCI specific features as discussed in the same JDBC Dev Guide

So don't try to import code that requires features only found in later Java versions.
#Oracle jdbc jar 7 update
You cannot update the DB version used internally and you cannot disable it without breaking the DB. REMEMBER - the Oracle DB currently ships with, uses AND MUST USE Java 1.5. That is, the code runs and accesses data from a single Oracle session. It is used for code that runs on the database server and accesses the same session. However, it is used for code that runs on the database server and needs to access another session either on the same server or on a remote server on any tier. It is functionally similar to the client-side Thin driver. It is used on the client-side with an Oracle client installation. It can be used with both applets and applications. It is a pure Java driver used on the client-side, without an Oracle client installation. Oracle provides the following JDBC drivers: See Introduction JDBC in the JDBC Dev Guide I guess this answers my question? Anything else to add to the above? We recommend using the Thin driver unless you must have one or more of the OCI only features, or until it is clear that the small performance gain provided by the OCI driver is worth the extra effort.

The Thin driver will work on any machine that has a suitable Java VM, whereas with the OCI driver you must install the proper OCI C libraries for each machine. The Thin driver is easier to administer since it does not require installation of the OCI C libraries. The OCI driver supports a few Oracle features better than the Thin driver. In a few cases the OCI driver has slightly better performance. In most cases it is as fast or faster than the OCI driver (from 10.1.0), has almost exactly the same set of features, and is easier to administer. Generally the Thin driver is the best choice. In either of these cases you should use the Server Thin Driver. If you are running in the Oracle server, then you should use the Server Internal Driver unless you need to connect to another Oracle database server or to open a second session on the same server. If you are using a non-TCP/IP network you must use the OCI driver. If you are writing an applet, you must use the Thin driver. Use the Thin driver unless there is a reason to use something else.

both the Java/JDBC and Oracle database run on Linux OS.

(2) Java/JDBC application runs on the same physical server where the database software is located, i.e. This is similar to N-tier on-line application concept. For example, Windows App Server with Java/JDBC and Oracle 11g R2 database server on Linux. (1) Java/JDBC application runs on separate (application) server to the database server. Which JDBC solution is recommened for the latest versions of Java and Oracle - to use Thin driver or use OCI-based driver? And why so? I did a search on this forum regarding which Oracle JDBC driver to use (from the application servers) - the OCI-based or Thin JDBC and the topic has been covered a number of time but the answers were several years old (most recent in ~2008?) so I would like to resurrect this topic again, for the later versions of Java (1.7 or at least 1.6, using ojdbc6.jar or later) and using the latest version of Oracle 11g R2 (11.2.0.3) database and latest OCI 11g R2 client software.
