US Patent 10489402 Bridging native JDBC calls with DBaaS using ESB

Methods and apparatus are provided for receiving a database query and executing the query against a remote database. The database query is used to generate an execution sequence comprising HTTP requests and data processing operations based on the database query. The HTTP requests are sent to a RESTful API provided by a database system. The HTTP requests are executed by the database system against a database, and the responses from the database system are returned to be processed according to the data processing operations. Finally, a set of query results is returned to the sender of the original database query.
