It doesn't work like that. You must try and build something on your own and if you encounter problems then we'll be happy to help.

you pass this string to Date class object and use it in database.

try yourself if you have problem then ask here...this is the good way of learning.

That format looks like the standard ISO 8601 format for dates and times.

Unfortunately, the standard Java API classes don't have very good support for that format. If the timezone indication (the letter "Z" at the end of your example) is always that, and can't be some other offset as defined by ISO 8601, then you can parse this string with a SimpleDateFormat without problems. But suppose that it's an offset such as "+01:00", then unfortunately SimpleDateFormat can't deal with that very well (it supports timezone offsets without the semi-colon, for example "+0100", but not with the semi-colon).

If you need really robust support for ISO 8601 format dates and times, I'd recommend you to use the Joda Time library.

you can also use parse() method for conversion.
