| 20. 37. 3. The JavaDB Environments | 
| 
 | 
Embedded: Allows only a single application to access a database at one time.  | 
In the embedded environment, no network access occurs.  | 
When you load a JDBC driver from a Java program, JavaDB automatically starts in the embedded environment.  | 
Client/server: Allows multiple applications to connect to JavaDB over the network.  | 
To start JavaDB in the client/server environment, you need to use the server command line tool of JavaDB.  |
