Boost Your Application Performance with an Oracle ODBC Unix Solution from DataDirect

For enterprise applications running on Unix platforms and using ODBC to access an Oracle database, Progress DataDirect delivers the best Oracle ODBC Unix connectivity solution. Progress DataDirect's data drivers for Oracle ODBC Unix environments provide industry-best performance along with an enterprise-class feature set that your applications can easily tap into.

The Best Performance for Oracle ODBC Unix Environments

On the strength of our 20 years of specialization in open standards-based data connectivity technologies, DataDirect engineers the best performing ODBC drivers on the market. Comprehensive benchmarking testing shows that DataDirect drivers consistently deliver higher throughput while utilizing system resources more efficiently than competing drivers.

Performance advantages engineered into DataDirect's Oracle ODBC Unix driver include:

  • A unique wire protocol architecture that eliminates the need for Oracle SQL *Net client libraries and allows for more efficient, faster communication with the target database.
  • A variety of tunable Oracle ODBC Unix performance features such as connection pooling that can be configured as attributes of the ODBC connection string.
  • Built-in bulk loading capabilities that enable high performance Oracle bulk load operations without requiring the Oracle SQL Loader utility. For bulk loading from flat files, DataDirect's built-in capabilities can load more data faster than the Oracle SQL Loader, and DataDirect drivers also make it easy to pipeline data from one database to another without intermediary flat files.

Enterprise Application Features for Oracle ODBC Unix Architectures

DataDirect's Oracle ODBC Unix drivers provide your applications easy access to valuable enterprise grade functionality without requiring additional application coding. With an Oracle ODBC Unix driver from DataDirect, your applications benefit from 100% driver-implemented features like load balancing, automatic failover, TLS/SSL data encryption, and Kerberos-based OS authentication.
