The BEA WebLogic Server uses the Java platform for portability to a large number of operating
platforms supporting the Java platform. On properly configured NonStop servers, the
WebLogic Server runs unchanged just like on other platforms.
The BEA WebLogic Server for the HP NonStop Server is an application server that provides a
framework for building and managing applications. WebLogic Server simplifies the
development, deployment, integration, and management of applications by surrounding the
latest J2EE and Web services standards with easy-to-use development and administration tools
and powerful clustering, security, integration, and management features. These built-in services
of WebLogic Server relieve developers of the need to create these services on their own.
For more detailed information, see BEA WebLogic Products documentation in the NonStop
Technical Library under Independent Products.
JDBC Drivers for NonStop SQL Database
Access
JDBC drivers implement the JDBC API and provide access to NonStop SQL databases. You
can use the JDBC API calls in your Java programs to access SQL tables on NonStop systems.
The drivers available and the access they provide are:
Type 2, which are native API drivers to use in Java programs running with NonStop
Server for Java on a NonStop system. The type 2 drivers are included on the NonStop
Server for Java distribution CD.
JDBC Driver for NonStop SQL/MX (JDBC/MX) for use with SQL/MX
JDBC Driver for NonStop SQL/MP (JDBC/MP) for use with SQL/MP
JDBC Type 4, which use network protocols built into the database engine. Type 4 drivers
talk directly to the database using Java sockets. You can use the HP NonStop JDBC
