I need answers to these:

1. Can Java use ODBC to connect to database, or can only use JDBC ?

2. Is JDBC better than ODBC because JDBC is portable and ODBC is not ?

3. Disadvantages of ODBC over JDBC ?

Thanks

It's clearly explained at this link

I agree. Here's the link: http://ej-technologies/jprofiler - if it wasn't for jprofiler, we would need to run our stuff on 16 servers instead of 3.
