Chapter 1: Introducing DirectConnect

DirectConnect for ODBC

DirectConnect for ODBC provides basic connectivity to ODBC-accessible data sources. DirectConnect for ODBC consists of a DirectConnect server, DirectConnect for ODBC access service libraries, and DirectConnect for ODBC access services.

The DirectConnect for ODBC access service library accesses ODBC-accessible data.

NoteThe ODBC driver for DirectConnect for ODBC (the backend driver to the target) is not provided by Sybase; you must select, install, and maintain it.

For access to additional databases such as Microsoft Access, Teradata, and others, you must obtain and install the necessary ODBC driver separately, on the same server as DirectConnect for ODBC, and configure DirectConnect for ODBC to use that ODBC driver for access to the database. It is important when working with non-Sybase provided, third-party ODBC drivers to carefully integrate and test them to be sure they meet your needs.
