To achieve this, Servoy employs Java Database Connectivity (JDBC) technology. JDBC is a connectivity standard that allows Java-based applications to interact transparently with any database vendor that provides a compliant driver.

The traditional development of database applications typically requires advanced SQL knowledge to adequately and efficiently retrieve data. Moreover, database vendors often adapt their own "flavors" of SQL, making database portability an issue. If an application uses non-standard SQL expressions, it cannot be easily deployed against databases other the the one for which it was developed.
