You can have the beans get a datasource (from a singleton possibly) and call its getConnection method. To encapsulate further, you can just expose a getConnection method on said singleton. That way only one class needs to worry about database configuration. And you have only one place to change if you switch from a Class#getResource approach to a JNDI one or vice versa.
