You need a SQL client.

I recommend Oracle SQL Developer: http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/developer-tools/sql-developer/downloads/index.html

With this client you can connect to many RDBMS including Oracle.

Java SDK should come out of the box with a bunch of drivers that allow you to connect to Oracle and various dbs. Checkout JDBC API. – Jeff H – 2012-12-17T09:02:19.777
