ECDA Option for ODBC provides basic connectivity to non Sybase datasources, using the ODBC back-end (server-side) driver that you purchase for your target database, such as IBM or Microsoft SQL.
Following the vendor’s instructions, you install the ODBC driver on the same server as ECDA Option for ODBC and then configure ECDA Option for ODBC to use that ODBC driver for access to your database.
Because ODBC drivers have varying degrees of functionality, it is important that when working with non-Sybase-provided third-party ODBC drivers, you carefully integrate and test them to be sure they meet your needs.
