Data access object DAO in Java

0 votes
I was going through a document and I came across a term called DAO. I found out that it is a Data Access Object. Can someone please explain me what this actually is?

I know that it is some kind of an interface for accessing data from different types of sources, in the middle of this little research of mine I bumped into a concept called data source or data source object, and things got messed up in my mind.

I really want to know what a DAO is programmatically in terms of where it is used. How it is used? Any links to pages that explain this concept from the very basic stuff is also appreciated.
