2.DAO Factory Design Pattern

The DAO Factory design pattern allows an application to work with multiple databases. It extends the DAO design pattern by adding a factory class that constructs DAO objects specific to a given database. This factory class contains logic to return the appropriate DAO based on the database name provided. This pattern helps change the database software with minimal changes to the persistence logic by abstracting the DAO instantiation through the factory. The example shows abstract DAO classes for Oracle and MS Access that extend a base DAO class. The factory returns the correct DAO implementation based on the database name.

DAO Factory Design Pattern

The DAO Factory design pattern is nothing but an extension to DAO Design Pattern.
Generally we can use DAO Design Pattern in order to separate persistence logic from other
logics of the application. Here implemented DAO class/ component contains persistence logic
with respective to a single a database. If you want to work with multiple databases then go
through the DAO Factory design pattern.

Def: DAO Factory design pattern is a class or component, which contains logic of constructing
and returning one database software specific DAO class object based on the database software
name we are provided i.e. DAO Factory design pattern is a combination of both Factory Pattern
and DAO Design Pattern.

This design pattern helps the programmer to change the database software of the
project with minimum changes done in JDBC persistence logic.

Ex:

//BComp1BaseDAO.java

else

throw new Exception("Please Provide Existed D/B Name");

return null;

};
