Imagine having a tool that can automatically detect if you are using JPA and Hibernate properly. Hypersistence Optimizer is that tool!
Ever wanted to connect to a relational database using Java and didn’t know the URL connection string?
Then, this article is surely going to help you from now on.

The JDBC connection properties look as follows:
| JDBC Driver | oracle.jdbc.OracleDriver |
| JDBC URL | jdbc:oracle:thin:@localhost:1521:orclpdb1 |
| Hibernate Dialect | org.hibernate.dialect.Oracle12cDialect |
And, if you want to connect using a JDBC DataSource, this is what you need to use:
OracleDataSource dataSource = new OracleDataSource();
dataSource.setDatabaseName("high_performance_java_persistence");
dataSource.setURL("jdbc:oracle:thin:@localhost:1521/orclpdb1");
dataSource.setUser("oracle");
dataSource.setPassword("admin");
The JDBC connection properties look as follows:
| JDBC Driver | com.mysql.jdbc.Driver |
| JDBC URL | jdbc:mysql://localhost/high_performance_java_persistence |
| Hibernate Dialect | org.hibernate.dialect.MySQL8Dialect |
And, if you want to connect using a JDBC DataSource, this is what you need to use:
MysqlDataSource dataSource = new MysqlDataSource();
dataSource.setURL(
"jdbc:mysql://localhost/high_performance_java_persistence"
);
dataSource.setUser("mysql");
dataSource.setPassword("admin");
The JDBC connection properties look as follows:
| JDBC Driver | org.postgresql.Driver |
| JDBC URL | jdbc:postgresql://localhost/high_performance_java_persistence |
| Hibernate Dialect | org.hibernate.dialect.PostgreSQL95Dialect |
And, if you want to connect using a JDBC DataSource, this is what you need to use:
PGSimpleDataSource dataSource = new PGSimpleDataSource();
dataSource.setDatabaseName("high_performance_java_persistence");
dataSource.setServerName("localhost");
dataSource.setUser("postgres");
dataSource.setPassword("admin");
The JDBC connection properties look as follows:
| JDBC Driver | com.microsoft.sqlserver.jdbc.SQLServerDriver |
| JDBC URL | jdbc:sqlserver://localhost;instance=SQLEXPRESS;databaseName=high_performance_java_persistence |
| Hibernate Dialect | org.hibernate.dialect.SQLServer2012Dialect |
And, if you want to connect using a JDBC DataSource, this is what you need to use:
SQLServerDataSource dataSource = new SQLServerDataSource();
dataSource.setURL(
"jdbc:sqlserver://localhost;instance=SQLEXPRESS;" +
"databaseName=high_performance_java_persistence;"
);
dataSource.setUser("sa");
dataSource.setPassword("adm1n");
The JDBC connection properties look as follows:
| JDBC Driver | org.mariadb.jdbc.Driver |
| JDBC URL | jdbc:mariadb://localhost/high_performance_java_persistence |
| Hibernate Dialect | org.hibernate.dialect.MariaDB53Dialect |
The JDBC connection properties look as follows:
| JDBC Driver | com.ibm.db2.jcc.DB2Driver |
| JDBC URL | jdbc:db2://localhost/high_performance_java_persistence |
| Hibernate Dialect | org.hibernate.dialect.DB2Dialect |
The JDBC connection properties look as follows:
| JDBC Driver | com.sap.db.jdbc.Driver |
| JDBC URL | jdbc:sap://localhost/high_performance_java_persistence |
| Hibernate Dialect | org.hibernate.dialect.HANAColumnStoreDialect |
The JDBC connection properties look as follows:
| JDBC Driver | com.informix.jdbc.IfxDriver |
| JDBC URL | jdbc:informix-sqli://localhost:9088/sysuser:INFORMIXSERVER=hpjp |
| Hibernate Dialect | org.hibernate.dialect.InformixDialect |
The JDBC connection properties look as follows:
| JDBC Driver | org.hsqldb.jdbc.JDBCDriver |
| JDBC URL | jdbc:hsqldb:mem:high_performance_java_persistence |
| Hibernate Dialect | org.hibernate.dialect.HSQLDialect |
And, if you want to connect using a JDBC DataSource, this is what you need to use:
JDBCDataSource dataSource = new JDBCDataSource();
dataSource.setUrl("jdbc:hsqldb:mem:test");
dataSource.setUser("sa");
dataSource.setPassword("");
The JDBC connection properties look as follows:
| JDBC Driver | org.h2.Driver |
| JDBC URL | jdbc:h2:mem:high_performance_java_persistence |
| Hibernate Dialect | org.hibernate.dialect.H2Dialect |
The JDBC connection properties look as follows:
| JDBC Driver | org.apache.derby.jdbc.EmbeddedDriver |
| JDBC URL | jdbc:derby:target/tmp/derby/hpjp;databaseName=high_performance_java_persistence;create=true |
| Hibernate Dialect | org.hibernate.dialect.DerbyTenSevenDialect |
That’s it!

Knowing the JDBC Driver Connection URL strings is mandatory if you want to connect to a relational database system from a Java application.
If there is a database system that I forgot to add, add a comment and I’ll update the article.
