How to install Firebird JDBC on Centos - jdbc

Can anyone help me to install or setup Firebird JDBC on my centos machine. I see no documentation on how to install from their site.
Thank you in advance.

You don't install a JDBC driver. You simply include it in the classpath of your Java application, just like you would do with the jar-file of any other Java library. You then configure (or code) the application to use the driver by specifying the driver name and connection string (or in the case of a DataSource: the connection properties).
Documentation for Jaybird can be found on Firebird: Drivers Documentation
If you need a more specific answer, then please ask a more specific question.

What to put in JDBC Driver Class when connecting JMeter with Azure Databricks cluster

What to put in JDBC driver class? enter image description here
Little help I could find on internet so I am asking for help.
Perhaps my Internet is better than yours because I can find a little bit more "help".
In the Configure the Databricks ODBC and JDBC drivers documentation chapter I can see JDBC Driver Guide section which looks like:
For more information about the JDBC driver, refer to the installation and configuration guide. Find the Databricks JDBC driver installation and configuration guide in the docs directory of the driver package.
In the docs directory of the downloaded JDBC Driver there is Databricks JDBC Driver Install and Configuration Guide.pdf file.
In the Registering the Connector Class chapter of this file it suggests to use com.databricks.client.jdbc.Driver as the classname
See Using JDBC Sampler in JMeter article for more hints on database testing with JMeter.

how to update snowflake driver in Talend open studio 7.2

Snowflake has recently updated launched JDBC Driver 3.12.x . However the talend open studios is still have 3.6.3 JDBC jar.
Is there a mechanism in talend to change the JDBC driver?
I tried updating the xml file but still the JDBC driver my job was picking up 3.6.3
You could use the Talend/Modules view to modify the JDBC driver, using a custom MVN URI. This is done at the project level.
You said it's picking 3.12x. I am assuming its a typo from your side.
What component you are using to connect to snowflake using talend ?
If this is not the tSnowflakeConnection.
Then you have couple of other talend components like(remember you can do all whatever you are doing using these components)
tJdbcRow
tJdbcConnection
Now if you want to use any of the above component they all allow you to add the driver jar.
Download the intended jar of your choice and use that in the above components instead.
Please let me know if this helps.

Grails 3.1.8 Oracle JDBC Driver configuration

I am trying to connect the Oracle Express Edition 11g through Grails 3.1.8. I tried all possible solutions:
Downloaded the jar file(ojdbc14.jar)
Adding a pom.xml to my sample application.
Searched the entire web for solution.
I was not able to achieve the connectivity between Grails3.1.8 and Oracle.
The only error I see is:
https://repo.grails.org/grails/core/com/oracle/ojdbc14/10.2.0.4.0/ojdbc14-10.2.0.4.0.jar (Use --stacktrace to see the full trace
Always use the latest JDBC driver in your application. JDBC driver is backward compatible with lower versions of the database. You can download the latest drivers from this path.

What are the advantages of installing JDBC Driver as a Module in WildFly

This link explains the new things about WildFly. Under the Migrating The Database Connection -> JDBC Driver the article explains about two ways of using jdbc drivers for the applications. I tried with installing it as a module and it works fine. The problem is which way is better and when it is better, whether deploy it as any other application package or install it as a module?
(I noted that install it as a module is necessary for clustered environment. I am looking for, are there any other reasons?)
I think the correct link to the article you are referencing is this one : http://wildfly.org/news/2014/02/06/GlassFish-to-WildFly-migration/
(The other one does not seem to point to the article you are mentioning)
Below is the interesting part from "Migrating The Database Connection" section you are referencing:
On WildFly, you have two ways of installing the JDBC driver: whether
you deploy it as any other application package or you install it as a
module. You can always choose to deploy the driver, but it’s specially
recommend when you have a cluster environment, since the deployments
are automatically propagated in the server groups.
You may have issues with the deployment if the driver is not
JDBC4-compliant. In this case, installing the driver as a module
solves those issues. The advantage of the JDBC driver as a module is
the possibility of creating a custom WildFly bundle for your
organization. This way, you can repeat exactly the same installation
throughout several machines, preserving the same configuration. This
is perfect for the development environment.
So in this section, the author describes the following advantage:
You may have issues with the deployment if the driver is not JDBC4-compliant. In this case, installing the driver as a module solves those issues.
The following Wildfly documentation describes this also:
Any JDBC 4-compliant driver will automatically be recognized and installed into the system by name and version. A JDBC JAR is identified using the Java service provider mechanism. Such JARs will contain a text a file named META-INF/services/java.sql.Driver, which contains the name of the class(es) of the Drivers which exist in that JAR. If your JDBC driver JAR is not JDBC 4-compliant, it can be made deployable in one of a few ways. (...)
Thus, deploying your driver as a module is easier than deploying it as any other application package in case it is not JDBC-4 compliant. (Because you would have to modify and rebuild your JDBC-4 not compliant jar to deploy it as any other application package)

What is difference between oracle.jdbc.xa.client.OracleXADataSource and oracle.jdbc.pool.OracleDataSource

I am trying to understand the difference between XA vs Non XA JDBC datasource. Also how do I know which type and version of JDBC dtriver is used. I am currently on 10.3 weblogic and trying some tet to kill long running queries using setQueryTimeout, which isnt seem to be reliable with OracleXADataSource as it is only working the first time and not always.
Sorry for this basic question but I am new to Weblogic Datasource configuration
Thanks
XA jdbc drivers are used to implement two-phase commit, meaning the two remote resources are part of the same transaction. Java specifies an implementation of this via JTA. A good reading is e.g. http://www.javaworld.com/javaworld/jw-07-2000/jw-0714-transaction.html; if you google for 'xa jdbc driver' you'll find plenty more info.
You should not use the XA driver if not necessary. I remember reading that there are some problems with them.
To identify JDBC driver your WLS is using, go to the <domain_dir>/config/jdbc and open the data souce file, check the driver-name value in the file.
To identify the Driver version, check from which .jar is the driver being loaded (run the WLS with -verbose:class)- the name of the jar will contain the version number. Also, you can use java -jar my-jdbc-file.jar which will print the driver version. The OJDBC drivers are usually stored in a file named ojdbc6.jar or ojdbc7.jar, etc.
