What are typical APIs, or standards to work with databases? (relational, Object and Nosql)

Iam trying to make a comparsion table of some database features focused on databases that can be used as embedded (in process databases) with Java. I would like to have there a field with APIs that are usually supported by those dbs but i dont know what exactly to search for.

At this time iam looking if it has a support for ODBC, JDBC (in relational dbs), then some remote acces API (REST, Thrift – not sure if its remote access API or what exactly it is) and in Nosql dbs i usually find only some kind of native APIs for data manipulation.

Are there any others that you could recommend me? Iam not looking for some advanced technics or third party tools etc. Only basic things that are commonly used
