Overview: DataDirect Connect for ODBC - Premier Oracle ODBC Driver, DB2 ODBC Driver, and More
DataDirect Connect for ODBC is the fastest, most comprehensive suite of ODBC drivers for all major databases – whether you need an Oracle ODBC driver, a DB2 ODBC driver, Microsoft SQL Server ODBC driver, Sybase ODBC driver or Informix ODBC driver. Our unique “wire protocol” design eliminates the need for database client software and libraries, which greatly simplifies installation and administration and dramatically improves performance. In fact, these clientless drivers even outperform applications that use the database’s native (proprietary) API for database access. DataDirect Connect for ODBC is the industry standard for ODBC drivers, providing the advanced functionality, performance, and reliability that developers need to quickly deliver high-quality, database-independent applications.
Most comprehensive suite of drivers for Oracle ODBC, DB2 ODBC, SQL Server ODBC, Sybase ODBC, or Informix ODBC
Supports all major databases:
Oracle ODBC driver
DB2 ODBC driver
SQL Server ODBC driver
Sybase ODBC driver
Informix ODBC driver
Supports all major platforms – Windows, Unix, and Linux
Supports access to Microsoft SQL Server from Unix
One ODBC driver supports all versions of Oracle (8i, 9i, and 10g)
One ODBC driver supports DB2 UDB and DB2 on OS/390 and AS/400
Wire protocol design eliminates database client libraries
DataDirect's wire protocol drivers communicate at the most direct level possible – forming network packets from the database’s native communication protocol, effectively removing a communication layer for much faster performance. This unique clientless architecture eliminates the need to install and keep up with the various versions of database client libraries such as Oracle Net (formerly Net8 and SQL*Net) and DB2 Connect.
Proven even faster than programming database access using the database’s native interface (such as Oracle OCI)
Less time testing various versions of the client software
Much easier installation and administration of software on clients
Proven, reliable drivers offer best-in-class functionality
DataDirect Connect for ODBC is the most widely used third-party ODBC driver on the market. It is tested under production conditions using the most comprehensive ODBC testing facility in the industry.
DataDirect Connect for ODBC consistently supports the latest, most complete implementation of the ODBC specification and the latest database versions and features, and offers advanced functionality across all databases such as:
Built-in debugging capabilities
Extensive Unicode support
Connection failover
Client-side load balancing
Features
Performance Tuning Wizard to automatically achieve optimal driver performance.
Wire protocol drivers for Oracle, DB2, SQL Server, Sybase, and Informix do not require database client libraries, offering dramatic performance increases, much easier administration, and better out-of-box deployment for commercial products.
Support for new Oracle data types: CLOB, BLOB, Timestamp, XML Type, and National Language character data types (NCHAR, NVARCHAR2, NCLOB).
Supports new Oracle 10g Float and Double Data types. Supports Oracle RAC servers and provides connection failover and load balancing.
DB2 driver supports multiple result sets from stored procedures, SQLDescribeParam, full BLOB/CLOB and RowID data types.
XML driver allows any ODBC application to access data in tabular and hierarchical formats.
XML Persistence Tool allows ODBC applications to persist any result set as an XML data file.
Full UNICODE support.
Connection failover support and client-side load balancing for all databases.
Microsoft DTC (Distributed Transaction Coordinator) support for Oracle, Sybase and Informix.
Oracle TNS Names support – Allows use of centralized configuration information, easing deployment maintenance.
File DSN support on UNIX platforms – Eases distribution and reduces management of applications across all major network platforms.
Supported Data Stores
