JSON JDBC Driver
Easily connect live JSON data with Java-based BI, ETL, reporting, AI/ML & custom apps.
The JSON JDBC Driver enables users to connect with live JSON services, directly from any applications that support JDBC connectivity. Rapidly create and deploy powerful Java applications that integrate with JSON.
JSON JDBC Connectivity Features
- SQL-92 access to JSON files and JSON Web Services
- Intelligent schema discovery with relational modeling and document flattening
- Connect to live JSON data, for real-time data access with the JSON JDBC Driver
- Full support for data aggregation and complex JOINs in SQL queries
- Secure connectivity through modern cryptography, including TLS 1.2, SHA-256, ECC, etc.
- Generate table schema automatically based on existing JSON data or manually for greater control of the content you need
- Seamless integration with leading BI, reporting, and ETL tools and with custom applications via the JSON Connector.

AI-assisted development with CData CLI
Build JSON integrations faster with AI that understands your schema
Schema-aware AI
CData CLI gives AI coding tools access to your JSON schema. No more guessing table names or column types—AI sees the same metadata in your JDBC Drivers.
Your AI knows SQL
How to find table names, column names, and how to generate SQL syntax are things that AI knows well from millions of training data. No need for customization, no hallucinations. Your AI acts like a domain specialist to JSON.
More accurate, more token-efficient
With CData CLI's queryable schema detection and highly efficient queries with filters, aggregation, joins with correct pushdown, your AI will achieve more accuracy with less token usage.
