HP Integrity NonStop H-Series - Manual (Page 291)

Clients
Clients are Java programs that provide input parameters and can communicate directly with the
Hibernate layer.
JDBC Drivers for NonStop SQL/MX
Java Database Connectivity (JDBC) is an API for the Java programming language that defines
how a client may access a database. It provides methods for querying and updating data in a
database.
JDBC is oriented towards relational databases.
The following types of JDBC drivers are available on NonStop systems:
• JDBC Type 2 Driver for NonStop SQL/MX
• JDBC Type 4 Driver for NonStop SQL/MX
For information on the JDBC Type 2 driver, see the JDBC Driver for SQL/MX Programmer's Reference
Manual.
For information on the NonStop JDBC Type 4 driver, see the HP NonStop JDBC Type 4 Driver
Programmer's Reference Manual.
NonStop SQL/MX
NonStop SQL/MX is a relational database product having the ability to run queries in parallel.
It offers a great advantage by scaling almost linearly with the number of processors in the machine.
For more information on NonStop SQL/MX, see the SQL/MX Installation and Management Guide.
Running Hibernate as a Web Application
Hibernate uses the following components while running as a web application:
• Web Clients
• TCP/IP Subsystem
• TS/MP PATHMON Process
• iTP WebServer
• NonStop Servlets for JavaServer Pages
• JDBC drivers for NonStop SQL/MX
• NonStop SQL/MX
Web Clients
Web clients, such as browsers, are programs that provide a graphical user interface and can
communicate directly with the iTP WebServer.
TCP/IP Subsystem
The HP NonStop TCP/IP subsystem uses the TCP/IP protocol to allow processes on a NonStop
system to communicate with each other.
The following types of TCP/IP versions are available on HP Integrity NonStop systems:
• Conventional TCP/IP
• TCP/IPv6
For more information on conventional TCP/IP, see the TCP/IP Configuration and Management
Manual.
For more information on TCP/IPv6, see the TCP/IPv6 Configuration and Management Manual.
