webMethods Adapter for JDBC is an add-on to webMethods Integration Server that enables you to exchange data with relational databases through the use of a JDBC driver. The adapter provides seamless and real-time communication with the database without requiring changes to your existing application infrastructure.

Using Adapter for JDBC, Integration Server clients can create and run services that execute transactions to retrieve data from, and insert and update data in, relational databases.

For example, you can use Adapter for JDBC to add a customer to an Oracle database based on data from another system connected to Integration Server. Or you can use Adapter for JDBC to poll a Microsoft SQL Server database for customers that have been added to the database, and to send that data to Integration Server to be inserted into another resource.

For a list of the database versions, JDBC drivers, and platforms that Adapter for JDBC supports, see webMethods Adapters System Requirements.

For a list of known driver limitations, see JDBC Driver Specific Properties.
