## Choosing a driver

Which JDBC drivers you use depends on the databases you are migrating from and to. For example, if you are migrating from Oracle to EDB Postgres Advanced Server, you will need the Oracle JDBC driver and the EDB JDBC driver.
Your selection of the JDBC drivers to use depends on the databases you're migrating from and to. For example, if you're migrating from Oracle to EDB Postgres Advanced Server, you need the Oracle JDBC driver and the EDB JDBC driver.

- If you're migrating to or from EDB Postgres Advanced Server, use the EDB JDBC driver. To download the latest driver, see [EDB Connectors](https://enterprisedb.com/software-downloads-postgres#edb-connectors) on the EDB Downloads page. For installation instructions, see [Installing and configuring EDB JDBC Connector](/jdbc_connector/latest/installing/).
