JDBC PostgreS Driver is a Windows development software for configuring communications between Java programs and custom PostgreSQL databases. There is full support for the SSL encryption protocol and javax.sql packages.

Main capabilities

The driver provides an interface for connecting to a PostgreSQL database and sending callable or prepared SQL statements. It is possible to retrieve result sets from executed queries. There is a module for managing internal data links as well. Please note that Java 6 or newer is required for installing the driver and interacting with it.

Connection parameters

Users can specify proxy settings to reroute all traffic through the remote server. This feature is helpful for bypassing network restrictions and ensuring anonymity. Additionally, there are instruments for changing the local IP address and communication port.

Data storage

You are able to place binary values in standard tables or use the Large Object feature. The latter method is more suitable for storing massive amounts of data. However, it utilizes a proprietary file format and cannot be accessed by other applications without conversion.
