Not even JDBC calls to the AS/400 are necessarily portable to another
database. This is particularly true if you use DB2/400 specific functions in
your SQL like RRN() or CURRENT_TIMESTAMP. By and large, sticking to SQL via
JDBC provides a high level of portability.

Using data queues or the record level access classes available in the
Toolkit could hamper later efforts to port your code to another database.
