SAS/ACCESS ODBC Driver
Superior SAS/ACCESS ODBC Connectivity
Enterprise organizations deal with diverse issues, a wider range of regulations and heightened global competition. The need for proactive, evidence-based decisions and agile strategies has never been greater. By delivering insight gleaned from data about customers, suppliers, operations, performance and more, SAS applications help solve complex business challenges, manage performance to achieve goals, drive sustainable growth through innovation as well as anticipate and manage ever-constant change.
SAS/ACCESS interfaces are out-of-the-box solutions that provide enterprise data access and integration with proprietary databases. SAS/ACCESS interfaces enable SAS solutions to read, write and update data regardless of its native database or platform. Because the data appears native to SAS, there is no need to learn Structured Query Language (SQL) or any other database-specific query languages.
However, with Progress DataDirect Connect for ODBC you can leverage more data sources on more platforms. Whether connecting to Oracle, DB2, Sybase, Informix, or several others, Progress DataDirect Connect for ODBC provides the best complement to SAS/ACCESS to ODBC – and the most functionality of any ODBC driver. And in addition to standards-based ODBC connectivity, Progress Connect for ODBC drivers provides bulk load functionality, performance tuning options and application failover – all of which can be easily configured through connection options.
64 bit ODBC Driver to Maximize Application Power
Most companies move to 64 bit servers because they have applications that must deliver peak performance and support large numbers of users. Unfortunately, they often inhibit the capacity of 64 bit applications by using 32 bit ODBC drivers.
Progress DataDirect Connect 64 bit ODBC drivers are designed for exclusive use with 64 bit platforms and databases to leverage the performance power of 64 bit addressing. You get the same quality and reliability of our industry standard 32 bit drivers with the processing capacity of 64 bit.
Supports All Major Databases and 64 bit Platforms (including UNIX and Linux)
