Servlets and JDBC

Hi,
I was reading the Tomcat documentation, and I found that jdbc:odbc
bridge should not be used.

http://jakarta.apache.org/tomcat/faq/database.html
Do not use JDBC-ODBC bridge bundled with Sun's JDK with Tomcat. It was
never meant for a production server environment. If you ask a question
about it, everyone will tell you to not use it. If you do need to use
ODBC, there are 3rd party drivers which do a pretty good job at being
thread safe.

What bridge should I use, and do I have to change any code other than
the bridge?

Thanks in Advance

Hi. I prey that your chosen DBMS has a real jdbc driver somewhere.
That is what you should use.

Which database? There is usually a JDBC driver for any
decently-supported DBMS.
