The application uses ODBC functions through an ODBC driver manager with which it is linked, and the driver passes the query to the DBMS. An ODBC driver can be thought of as analogous to a printer driver or other driver, providing a standard set of functions for the application to use, and implementing DBMS-specific functionality.
The driver that Microsoft provides in MDAC is called the SQL Server ODBC Driver (SQLODBC), and (as the name implies) is designed for Microsoft's SQL Server. It supports SQL Server v6.5 and upwards. [3] ODBC allows programs to use SQL requests that will access databases without having to know the proprietary interfaces to the databases. It ...
Type 1 that calls native code of the locally available ODBC driver. (Note: In JDBC 4.2, JDBC-ODBC bridge has been removed [15]) Type 2 that calls database vendor native library on a client side. This code then talks to database over the network. Type 3, the pure-java driver that talks with the server-side middleware that then talks to the database.
The unixODBC project was first started in the early months of 1999 (by Peter Harvey) and was created as at that time the developers of iODBC (another open source ODBC implementation) were not then willing to LGPL the code, expand the API to include the current ODBC 3 API specification, and did not consider the addition of GUI based configuration tools worthwhile. iODBC now has these parts ...
The ODBC driver needs to be installed on the client machine. Not suitable for applets, because the ODBC driver needs to be installed on the client. Specific ODBC drivers are not always available on all platforms; hence, portability of this driver is limited. No support from JDK 1.8 (Java 8).
The Microsoft Distributed Transaction Coordinator (MSDTC) service is a component of Microsoft Windows that is responsible for coordinating transactions that span multiple resource managers, such as databases, message queues, and file systems.
OLE DB providers are analogous to ODBC drivers, JDBC drivers, and ADO.NET data providers. OLE DB providers can be created to access such simple data stores as a text file and spreadsheet, through to such complex databases as Oracle , Microsoft SQL Server , Sybase ASE , and many others.
