This shift has much to do with Java’s emerging role as a universal language for producing implementation-independent abstractions for common enterprise technologies. The JDBC™ API is the first and most familiar example. JDBC provides a vendor-independent Java interface for accessing SQL relational databases. This abstraction has been so successful that it’s difficult to find a relational database vendor that doesn’t support JDBC. Java abstractions for enterprise technologies have expanded considerably to include JNDI ( Java Naming and Directory Interface™) for abstracting directory services, JMX ( Java Management Extensions) for abstracting access to computer devices on a network, and JMS™ ( Java Message Service) for abstracting access to different Message-Oriented Middleware products.
