Getting Started : Using the Drivers : Using Connection Properties
  
Using Connection Properties
The drivers provide connection properties that allow you to customize the drivers for your environment. You can specify connection properties using either of the following methods:
*JDBC Driver Manager. See Connecting Using the JDBC Driver Manager for more information.
*JDBC data sources. See Connecting Using Data Sources for sample code that you can use as a template for creating and using your own data sources.
You can use connection properties to accomplish different tasks, such as provide specific driver behavior for a connection or optimize performance in certain scenarios.
For details, see the following topics:
* Providing Connection Information
* Optimizing Performance
