Chapter 3: Sybase IQ as a Data Server

About this chapter

Sybase IQ supports client application connections through either ODBC or JDBC. This chapter describes how to use Sybase IQ as a data server for client applications.

With certain limitations, Sybase IQ may also appear to certain client applications as an Open Server.This chapter also briefly describes the restrictions for creating and running these applications.

See ”Open Client architecture”in SQL Anywhere Server - Programming.

The facilities described in this chapter do not provide remote data access for IQ users on Windows and Sun Solaris systems. Remote data access is provided by Component Integration Services (CIS), the core interoperability feature of OmniConnect™. For information on remote data access and proxy databases, see Chapter 4, “Accessing Remote Data” and Chapter 5, “Server Classes for Remote Data Access.”
