# Class JDBCRealm

java.lang.Object
org.apache.catalina.util.LifecycleBase
org.apache.catalina.util.LifecycleMBeanBase
org.apache.catalina.realm.RealmBase
org.apache.catalina.realm.JDBCRealm

All Implemented Interfaces:
  `MBeanRegistration`, `Contained`, `JmxEnabled`, `Lifecycle`, `Realm`

@Deprecated public class JDBCRealm extends RealmBase
Deprecated.
Will be removed in Tomcat 10 onwards. Use the DataSourceRealm instead.
Implementation of Realm that works with any JDBC supported database. See the JDBCRealm.howto for more details on how to set up the database and for configuration options.

For a Realm implementation that supports connection pooling and doesn't require synchronisation of `authenticate()`, `getPassword()`, `roles()` and `getPrincipal()` or the ugly connection logic use the `DataSourceRealm`.
