Ummmmm, okay then how stable is the JDBC/ODBC bridge? As I previously mentioned in my initial posting some bits and peices that I've read suggest that this method of connecting to a DB back end is, or can be, a little dodgy. The comments basically revolved around the premise that the bridge is not capable of being threaded and it is considered by Sun to still be experimental. I got the impression that there is potential for data loss or corruption along with performance related issues.
I guess I really need to know if it is reasonable to use Tomcat to host an environment that relies on this sort of DB connectivity.
