PostgreSQL is a database server, JDBC4 is strictly speaking an API,
but I presume you are asking about the client library that implements
it and allows java programs to connect to the PostgreSQL database
server.
psqlODBC is very similar client library which implements the ODBC API
as opposed to the JDBC API.
