Clearly this problem breaks down into at least 2 steps:

1. Uploading the file
2. Storing the file

Some web application frameworks have built in support to make uploading a file easy. Otherwise, you might consider using something like Apache Commons FileUpload: http://commons.apache.org/fileupload/

Are for storing the file in a database, there are two common solutions to this. One is to just store the file in the file system of the server and store the path of this file (as a string) in the appropriate column in the appropriate database table.

The other approach is to store the contents of the file as data in a column. Such a column with have type BLOB (or CLOB if storing text). If your are using JDBC directly, inserting the data into the column is easy: use a PreparedStatement and setBinaryStream or setCharacterStream.
