Overview of this book

At times, DBAs support 100s of databases at work. In such scenarios, using a command-line tool like putty adds to the difficulty, while SQL Developer makes the life of a developer, DBA, or DB architect easier by providing a graphical user interface equipped with features that can bolster and enhance the user experience and boost efficiency. Features such as DBA panel, Reports, Data Modeler, and Data Miner are just a few examples of its rich features, and its support for APEX, REST Services, timesten, and third-party database drivers demonstrate its extensibility. You may be a newbie to databases or a seasoned database expert, either way this book will help you understand the database structure and the different types of objects that organize enterprise data in an efficient manner. This book introduces the features of the SQL Developer 4.1 tool in an incremental fashion, starting with installing them, making the database connections, and using the different panels. By sequentially walking through the steps in each chapter, you will quickly master SQL Developer 4.1.

Chapter 8. Database Connections and JDBC Drivers

SQL Developer provides a variety of options when making database connections by supporting connections to both Oracle and non-Oracle databases. For all of these connections, you'll need the required JDBC drivers. Within the Oracle connections, there are a variety of connection types (such as TNS or LDAP connections) and authentication methods (such as OS or Kerberos authentication).

In this chapter, we'll review the basic connection type used in the examples earlier in the book. We'll see how to add these additional Oracle connection types and review the connections for the supported authentication methods. We'll also look at how to add the required drivers and set up the connections for non-Oracle databases.
