Data access beans provide a rich set of features and function, while hiding much of the complexity associated with accessing relational databases. They are Java classes that are written to the JavaBeans Specification. You can use the data access beans in JavaBeans-compliant tools, such as the IBM WebSphere Studio Application Developer (WSAD). Because the data access beans are also Java classes, you can use them like ordinary classes.
