Introduction

dbSpaces's Java Client API is an interface that enables developers to make requests to retrieve data from the dbSpaces CORE database servers.

The API allows in the same application both SQL and noSQL (also known as navigational using key/data pairs) requests allowing complete flexibility for the developer in delivering data to any application.

If the developer prefers to use noSQL but needs to access database metadata to obtain dictionary information they are able to do this using the DatabaseMetadata object.

The noSQL API allows the developer to use either row or column get/set methods when accessing data in a table.

If the developer is familiar with the JDBC API then they will find the Java SQL API easy to use.

Examples

Example Java Client programs can be found in the samples/jdb directory within the dbSpaces installation directory.
