hey guys which database is most suitable for use with java language....
Oracle
MYsql
JDBC
One of those is not a database. Of the other two, I don't think Java has anything to do with why you would choose one over the other.
i need to use a database for an inventory management software..which one should i use....just a simple question....ignore my first post..thanks
Where will the database be hosted?

Asking which to use is like asking how one likes there coffee...its a matter of taste, what you want from the system, what you have and what your requirements are. Each one will have certain advantages over the other ranging from usability to availability. Of the two you mentioned, something to consider is that for commercial use I believe Oracle requires the purchase of a license, whereas MySQL is free (and also provided pre-installed on many hosting services as well as operating systems). There are other differences as well, but these involve more advanced concepts that I won't go into
