It is done by DATABASE METADATA INTERFACE.......
Syntax:-

.get driverName()
.getDataBaseProductName()
A computer is made up of many technical systems. The registry is a special database that holds key information about your system, including the device drivers.
Windows uses a database called the registry to keep information regarding hardware and software configuration information, user preferences, and application settings. // When 32-bit device drivers are installed, Windows records information about the drivers in the registry. // Every time Windows starts up, it reads the entries in the registry to know how to load the drivers needed at startup.
A database is a program in which to store information. Such information can be sorted and manipulated to create reports, and aid an advertising mail-merge, and so on.
A query can be used to do things with the data. Mostly it is to extract information from the database, but they can also be used to delete, edit and update a database. Queries are very important and powerful aspect of a database.

All types of information may be kept in a database.
Actually coming to this one, we need to discuss about those companies which are invented the java(Sun Micro System) and database(Oracle), in olden days these companies were tie up that time, so that's why we are accessing the database with application program written in java. now coming to our topic, We need to select the suitable drivers to our application(Desktop or Web Application) load the drivers through application. Those drivers are JDBC drivers, JDBC is nothing but pool of drivers in which some drivers are default in Windows OS, when ever we create the DATABASE Application like ORACLE, then automatically drivers are also included in JDBC.
A database is usually not impractical unless the information in the database is not organized or necessary. A database should keep useful information on hand.
DBMS is database management. Database is where the information is stored.
We know what is database, it is a collection records. When a database is created from the existing database it is known as derived database.
