Database driver

As explained in Quarkus in Action

The MySQL JDBC driver is a Java database-connectivity implementation that enables applications to connect to MySQL and execute database operations.

How Quarkus in Action covers it

How deep it goes

Explains extension selection and connection configuration, but stops short of driver internals or JDBC API details.

Examples

Uses quarkus-jdbc-postgresql commands, Maven dependencies, PostgreSQL connection properties, and an EntityManager persistence example.

What it assumes

Assumes a Quarkus application and database choice, while introducing the required extensions and connection properties.

What you can do after

Operate/configure a Quarkus application with the database-specific driver required by Panache or Hibernate ORM/JPA.

How it connects

Connects database drivers with Quarkus extensions, Hibernate Panache, Hibernate ORM, JPA, EntityManager, and Dev Services.
