Developer Interface Support
Connect drivers and providers provide functionality that significantly reduces the development, testing and deployment effort required to build mission critical applications. Many DataDirect capabilities can be leveraged without making any code changes, and DataDirect provides a number of interoperability features that allows you to easily manage multi-database environments. These DataDirect capabilities dramatically shorten the time it takes to deliver robust, reliable and great performing applications.
