As Microsoft turned its attention away from working directly on ODBC, the Unix field was increasingly embracing it. This was propelled by two changes within the market, the introduction of graphical user interfaces (GUIs) like GNOME that provided a need to access these sources in non-text form, and the emergence of open software database ...
The Microsoft OLE DB Provider for ODBC, or MSDASQL, was an OLE DB provider for allowing ActiveX Data Objects access to databases via any ODBC driver. Microsoft supplied several OLE-DB providers (for the Indexing Service, Active Directory , Jet, SQL Server, Oracle ( MSDAORA [ 28 ] ) and Internet Publishing), however unless otherwise directed ...
Jet, being part of a relational database management system (RDBMS), allows the manipulation of relational databases. [1] It offers a single interface that other software can use to access Microsoft databases and provides support for security, referential integrity, transaction processing, indexing, record and page locking, and data replication.
Microsoft Access is designed to scale to support more data and users by linking to multiple Access databases or using a back-end database like Microsoft SQL Server. With the latter design, the amount of data and users can scale to enterprise-level solutions. Microsoft Access's role in web development prior to version 2010 is limited.
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 ...
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. It can also provide access to hierarchical data stores such as ...
Microsoft kept the db-lib API and added ODBC. (Microsoft has since added additional APIs.) (Microsoft has since added additional APIs.) At about the same time, Sybase introduced a more powerful successor to db-lib , called ct-lib , and called the pair Open Client .
Java, C, C++, JDBC, ODBC, SQL Proprietary Altibase is a hybrid DBMS that combines an in-memory database with a conventional disk-resident database in a single unified engine. It supports full ACID properties and standard connectivity interfaces such as JDBC and ODBC, as well as interoperability.
